Abstract
In the field of rendering a three dimensional model into a two dimensional graphical representation, the resources available to a general purpose computer can be used to efficiently render the scene. The high speed/low computer resource with which the rendering is performed results from utilizing different inputs to the rendering engine and from the manner in which the rendering engine handles these inputs.
Claims1
A method of creating an interactive atmosphere active environmental rendered 2D video representation of a 3D scene, comprising the steps of:
- a. accessing data representing a 3D environment from a 3D perspective;
- b. calculating a 2D video representation utilizing volumes from the entire 3D environment by;
- i. creating a single 3D output matrix with no light-map;
- and
- ii. changing the output matrix.
