4. Technical Presentation

Elodie Fourquet	Title Multiple Perspectives in Computer Graphics: Arguments from Perceptual Grouping and Renaissance Art Abstract I will present arguments of perceptual grouping research and Renaissance art practices for a more flexible use of perspective. The composition in the frontal plane is as relevant as the depth information in a picture. Perspective does not need to be as rigid, as unitary that the one in the relastic computer graphics pipeline. We propose a panel architecture to support multiple perspectives. We are conducting experiments to know the limits of tolerable perspective inconsistencies.

Title
Multiple Perspectives in Computer Graphics: Arguments from Perceptual Grouping and Renaissance Art
Abstract

I will present arguments of perceptual grouping research and Renaissance art practices for a more flexible use of perspective. The composition in the frontal plane is as relevant as the depth information in a picture. Perspective does not need to be as rigid, as unitary that the one in the relastic computer graphics pipeline. We propose a panel architecture to support multiple perspectives. We are conducting experiments to know the limits of tolerable perspective inconsistencies.
