Computing Exact Aspect Graphs of Curved Objects: Algebraic Surfaces

Abstract

This paper presents an algorithm for computing the exact aspect graph of an opaque solid bounded by a smooth algebraic surface and observed under orthographic projection. The algorithm uses curve tracing, cell decomposition, and ray tracing to construct the regions of the view sphere delineated by visual events. It has been fully implemented, and examples are presented.
