Because power consumption increases almost linearly with GPU workload, the heavy GPU workload imposed by fixed high resolution can be allowed to be actually computed only when there are human perceptible benefits. Some recent techniques are exploited at runtime to reduce the workload such as skipping frames or lowering resolution during rendering. From those techniques, we still observe noticeable artifacts because they did not carefully investigate whether resulting sequences of frames are perceived as containing artifacts or not. Although one of recent studies relies on a user's view distance [Nixon et al. 2014], it can malfunction depending on environmental and biometric limitation.","PeriodicalId":432851,"journal":{"name":"SIGGRAPH Asia 2015 Posters","volume":"419 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2015-11-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122795926","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}

The 3-D objects designed by the algorithm can exhibit multiple 2-D images towards different directions simultaneously. Figure 2a shows a prototype of a 3-D crystal which has been designed using the proposed algorithm. As shown in Figure 2b, we can recognize three images when we look at it from the respective directions. In other words, the 3-D crystal is independently providing three images with directivity.","PeriodicalId":432851,"journal":{"name":"SIGGRAPH Asia 2015 Posters","volume":"6 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2015-11-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123965816","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}

Complex lighting with deferred shading is now very common on desktop and console devices.","PeriodicalId":432851,"journal":{"name":"SIGGRAPH Asia 2015 Posters","volume":"29 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2015-11-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"133636412","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}
