{"title":"libigl: prototyping geometry processing research in C++","authors":"Alec Jacobson, Daniele Panozzo","doi":"10.1145/3134472.3134497","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1145/3134472.3134497","url":null,"abstract":"Modern geometry processsing algorithms depend on an ever-growing toolbox of fundamental sub-routines and data structures. Prototyping from scratch requires much time building basic tools rather than focusing on the novel research idea. Many existing code libraries have unsatisfactory APIs and the time spent implementing sub-routines is often replaced with time spent learning complex, templated object hierarchies or memory layouts. Libigl is a C++ library of geometry processing algorithms designed for and by researchers. Its wide functionality includes construction of common sparse discrete differential geometry operators (such as the cotangent Laplacian), simple facet- and edge-based topology data structures, mesh-viewing utilities for OpenGL and GLSL, and many core functions for matrix manipulation which make Eigen feel a lot more like MATLAB. Libigl places extreme importance on ease of use and experimentation. To this end, algorithms are directly exposed as functions taking simple matrix types as inputs and outputs. Libigl is a \"header only\" library and compiles on Windows, Mac, and Linux. In this course, we will walk through an introduction of libigl via readymade examples spanning the gamut of geometry processing applications and tasks. Attendees will be able to follow along on their laptops. We will explain the core functionality of libigl, how to piece together complex algorithms from library functions, and how to interface to libigl from Python and MATLAB. We will highlight some of libigl's most powerul features: including mesh booleans, quad remeshing, parameterization, and shape deformation. We will conclude with live coding sessions demonstrating libigl's effectiveness and ease-of-use. The course continues beyond the lecture via libigl's interactive online tutorial complete with over 50 example demos (http://libigl.github.io/libigl/tutorial/tutorial.html) and an open source graduate-level course on geometry processing based on libigl (https://github.com/alecjacobson/geometry-processing).","PeriodicalId":412128,"journal":{"name":"SIGGRAPH Asia 2017 Courses","volume":"28 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-11-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127298904","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}

In this case study, we will explain the problems that we encountered, as well as the solutions we came up with when implementing the \"fantasy world based on reality\" in the making of FINAL FANTASY XV. Reality has various aspects. For example, in order to create a world that is in a constant state of flux like the actual world we live in, we needed to support both time changes as well as changes in the weather. We also needed believable characters to inhabit the world we created. Moreover, we needed user interfaces and localization to realistically present this world to our users. In this course, Part III, we will talk about our movie KINGS-GLAIVE FINAL FANTASY XV as an example of how to create large amounts of assets inside the story world. Then we will talk about user interfaces and localization and how we applied them to present the world both realistically and within the familiar framework of one's culture. We will also discuss our use of snapshots as an example of next-generation screen-shots based on reality. Lastly, we would like to introduce our future projects.","PeriodicalId":412128,"journal":{"name":"SIGGRAPH Asia 2017 Courses","volume":"46 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-11-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121447242","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}
