{"title":"An introduction to physics-based animation","authors":"Adam W. Bargteil, Tamar Shinar","doi":"10.1145/3214834.3214849","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1145/3214834.3214849","url":null,"abstract":"Physics-based animation has emerged as a core area of computer graphics finding widespread application in the film and video game industries as well as in areas such as virtual surgery, virtual reality, and training simulations. This course introduces students and practitioners to fundamental concepts in physics-based animation, placing an emphasis on breadth of coverage and providing a foundation for pursuing more advanced topics and current research in the area. The course focuses on imparting practical knowledge and intuitive understanding rather than providing detailed derivations of the underlying mathematics. The course is suitable for someone with no background in physics-based animation---the only prerequisites are basic calculus, linear algebra, and introductory physics. We begin with a simple, and complete, example of a mass-spring system, introducing the principles behind physics-based animation: mathematical modeling and numerical integration. From there, we systematically present the mathematical models commonly used in physics-based animation beginning with Newton's laws of motion and conservation of mass, momentum, and energy. We then describe the underlying physical and mathematical models for animating rigid bodies, soft bodies, and fluids. Then we describe how these continuous models are discretized in space and time, covering Lagrangian and Eulerian formulations, spatial discretizations and interpolation, and explicit and implicit time integration. In the final section, we discuss commonly used constraint formulations and solution methods.","PeriodicalId":107712,"journal":{"name":"ACM SIGGRAPH 2018 Courses","volume":"24 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-08-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128502851","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Wearable VR and AR headsets accentuate these challenges while also increasing the demand for computation. To meet these graphical demands while keeping within a mobile form factor requires scrutiny of all aspects of modern graphics, from hardware design and associated graphics APIs, to OS and system considerations, to the algorithms and techniques employed. This half-day course provides a technical introduction to mobile graphics spanning the hardware-software spectrum and explores the state of the art with practitioners at the forefront of their field. We look at the impact of XR on hardware, software and OS, quantified best practices in real-time rendering and computer vision research on mobile devices.","PeriodicalId":107712,"journal":{"name":"ACM SIGGRAPH 2018 Courses","volume":"39 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-08-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"131765368","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

{"title":"Story: it's not just for writers... anymore!","authors":"C. Caldwell","doi":"10.1145/3214834.3214839","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1145/3214834.3214839","url":null,"abstract":"This course has been designed for technical directors, artists, animators, modelers, programmers, and designers whose work is essential in making \"the story\" come to life. This information can be particularly useful when communicating with screenwriters, directors, producers, and supervisors. This course answers the question \"what is story?\" (and you don't even have to take a course in screenwriting). Entertaining with numerous clips to show how this has been used in animation and VFX. The purpose is to take the mystery out of \"what is story\" for those programmers, artists, and game designers whose work is essential in making Animation, VFX, and Games successful. The attendees will know the basic elements of story, so the next time a producer or director talk about what they want for the story, they will know what specific story benchmarks the producer/director are trying to meet in connecting emotionally with an audience. This course will build from the knowledge that story \"is a sequence of events (acts) that builds to a climax....\" and then lays out the universal elements of story that make up plot, character development, and narrative structure. This course emphasizes story elements in context (i.e. theme, character, setting, conflict etc.) and their relationship to classic story structure (i.e. setup, inciting incident, rising action, climax, resolution etc.). It analyzes conflict (i.e. internal, external, environmental), turning points, cause & effect, archetype vs stereotypes, inciting incident, and how choice defines character. In all stories there must be questions raised: What is at stake (i.e. survival, safety, love, esteem, etc.)? What is going to motivate (inciting incident) the main character (protagonist)? Will that be enough to move them from the ordinary (where they are comfortable) to go out into a different world (where the action takes place), and How will the character \"change\"(necessary for all dramatic stories)? These are just a few of the storytelling elements necessary to structure a solid story. This course is for all whose work makes the story better but their job isn't creating the story.","PeriodicalId":107712,"journal":{"name":"ACM SIGGRAPH 2018 Courses","volume":"72 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-08-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116302501","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

{"title":"Monte Carlo methods for physically based volume rendering","authors":"Jan Novák, Iliyan Georgiev, Johannes Hanika, Jaroslav Křivánek, Wojciech Jarosz","doi":"10.1145/3214834.3214880","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1145/3214834.3214880","url":null,"abstract":"We survey methods that utilize Monte Carlo (MC) integration to simulate light transport in scenes with participatingmedia. The goal of this course is to complement a recent Eurographics 2018 stateof-the-art report providing a broad overview of most techniques developed to date, including a few methods from neutron transport, with a focus on concepts that are most relevant to CG practitioners. The wide adoption of path-tracing algorithms in high-end realistic rendering has stimulated many diverse research initiatives aimed at efficiently rendering scenes with participatingmedia. More computational power has enabled holistic approaches that tie volumetric effects and surface scattering together and simplify authoring workflows. Methods that were previously assumed to be incompatible have been unified to allow renderers to benefit from each method’s respective strengths. Generally, investigations have shifted away from specialized solutions, e.g. for singleor multiplescattering approximations or analytical methods, towards the more versatile Monte Carlo algorithms that are currently enjoying a widespread success in many production settings. The goal of this course is to provide the audience with a deep, up-to-date understanding of key techniques for free-path sampling, transmittance estimation, and light-path construction in participating media, including those that are presently utilized in production rendering systems. We present a coherent overview of the fundamental building blocks and we contrast the various advanced methods that build on them, providing attendees with guidance for implementing existing solutions and developing new ones.
