Digital Prototypes
From golf clubs to office buildings, digital prototyping can be merely helpful or it can be a necessity. Design, modeling and simulation together form a method for experiencing a design before committing to expensive manufacturing. A number of examples will be shown as well as research challenges going forward, such as interactive simulation and advanced human modeling.

Towards Fully Digital Dentistry
In this talk we will present the 3Shape TRIOS system for taking digital impressions of teeth in dental clinics. We will discuss some of the technical challenges involved and show how a traditionally analog process can be made completely digital.
As with X-rays, 3Shape believes that all impression-taking will soon be completely digital. 3Shape TRIOS is an intraoral scanner that is designed to help dentists join the new era of digital dentistry. Digitalization of dentistry is being driven “fast-forward”, propelled by continuously advanced technologies that deal with even complex clinical situations and support high quality restorations.
The sensor inside the 3Shape TRIOS scanner can take up to 3000 images pr. second. These images are processed into 3D geometry in real-time while scanning the patient. The final 3D model is then send to a dental lab, which manufactures the restoration for the patient. The restoration can be previewed by the patient in the dentist’s clinic using the TRIOS system or online using the 3Shape Communicate system. Finally the manufactured restoration can be fitted in the patients mouth.
By using 3Shape TRIOS the conventional hassle of taking silicone impressions and making gypsum models can be avoided and the workflow can be kept completely digital.

A Finite Element Approach to Fluid Simulation
In order to create accurate, dynamic digital prototypes of organic
substances, we require fluid simulation methods allowing to model
fluids of different physical properties (such as viscosity or surface
tension). There are two basic approaches to fluid simulation: Lagrangian and
Eulerian. Lagrangian (or particle-based) approach is characterized by
simple advection and little numerical diffusion, but proper handling
of the deformations of the fluid's free surface is a challenge in this
setup. Eulerian methods, which track the flow of the fluid at a number
of fixed points in space, deal much better with this problem, owing
robust topological adaption to the Level Set Method used for free
surface tracking. Those methods, however, suffer from numerous
drawback: they are subject to significant numerical diffusion, and
require numerous, sophisticated fixes in order to mitigate the problem
of not being able to properly handle curved solid boundaries, surface
tension or multiple phases. We present a novel, finite-element based
Lagrangian method, which solves the free surface tracking problem by
the use of Deformable Simplicial Complexes (DSC), a novel,
unstructured tetrahedral grid based method for deformable interface
tracking. Our method solves incompressible Euler equations by solving
a quadratic optimization problem, using the DSC grid as the
computational grid for the finite element method. We are going to show
that this approach is free of the inherent disadvantages of the
Eulerian methods.

Unfortunately, Henrik Wann Jensen had to cancel on short notice.
We tried to fill the slot with a similar talk but it prooved impossible.
Instead, the last two sessions have been merged.

Optimizing Physically Based Rendering
In recent years unbiased rendering methods have become increasingly popular. Not too many years ago these methods were only used in university labs. Nowadays several commercial products exist that are based on these methods and unbiased methods are even being used for special effects in films. In this talk I will try go to give an overview of how the underlying algorithms work and what the challenges are when it comes to designing such algorithms.

How to Aid Human Perception
Existing display devices introduce a number of limitations in
realistic reproduction of the real world appearance.
By embedding the knowledge of human visual system (HVS)
into rendering algorithms many of such physical constraints
can be alleviated. At first, I discuss how the perception-inspired
brightness and contrast manipulation in tone mapping can be
performed to compress the high dynamic range of luminance,
which is inherent for the real-world scenes.
Even further boost of apparent brightness and contrast
can be achieved by referring to strong and persistent visual
illusions such as dynamic glare, Gelb, and Cornsweet illusions.
Another important issue is image spatial and temporal resolution.
In particular, I present a technique for apparent resolution
enhancement, which enables showing image details beyond the physical
pixel resolution of the display device. Also, I discuss the problem
of temporal resolution retargeting and hold-type blur reduction.
Finally, I refer to binocular vision and show the perception-driven
framework for disparity manipulation, which is geared towards
the enhancement of perceived depth impression.
