Real-Time Rendering Methods with Adaptive Levels of Detail for Fast Rendering of Parametric Objects on Modern GPUs

Abstract summary

This method renders objects defined by parametric functions directly on modern GPUs. An adaptive level-of-detail stage subdivides the parameter domain into patches with comparable geometric detail, followed by either hardware tessellation or point-based rasterization. Because the process runs anew for each frame without cached geometry or preprocessing, it also supports animated surfaces while controlling image-space precision.
