4. Technical Presentation

Alex Pytel	Title : Two Methods of Volume Visualization Abstract: I will discuss two volume visualization methods that are suitable for working with voxel-like data. The first one produces actual geometry by using a voxel merging technique followed by adaptive 4-8 subdivision. The second method is a shader that traces rays that it casts into the given 3D volume.
