Fig 1:
Standard pattern-based mapping used for applying a cellular pattern onto the geometric model of a liver. Distortions are clearly noticeable.
Fig 3:
Two cases where unexpected path shapes appear since the lowest frequency of the texture (i.e. the grain size) is too close to the sample scale. Left: A naive set of texture samples designed to figure cells onto a surface. Right: A set of procedurally generated volumetric textures.
Fig 5:
Mountain covered by forest. The location of forest and ground material is controlled by the values at the nodes of the texture mesh. These values are `painted' by the user with their probability attribute (intensity of presence).
Fig 7:
A texture patch mapped onto a curved region of a geometric model (views from three different viewpoints): texture distortions remain reasonable.
Fig 8:
From left to right: the geometric mesh, which is rendered; the texture mesh, used for tuning the scale of the texture with respect to the object's geometry; the resulting textured sphere; the sphere with a finer scale texture.
Fig 9:
Texture samples drawn by hand, and the resulting image. Two different edge conditions (red, blue), both symmetric, are used.
Fig 10:
A set of texture samples designed by interactively editing an image of a sponge (left), and the resulting textured surface on a terrain and on a face.
Fig 12:
Sets of texture samples generated by our extension of Worley's synthesis technique, and the images produced by non-periodically mapping them onto a surface. Left: A human liver. Right: A china torus.
Fig 14:
Three sets of texture samples generated by our extension of Perlin's synthesis technique, and the images produced by mapping them onto a surface. In the image on the right, Perlin's texture is used as displacement map, encoded with an OpenGL implementation of volumetric textures[13].
