Abstract
A model generator 2 arranges a three-dimensional model on a base line. A model renderer 4 renders the three-dimensional model. A distance map generator 5 converts each depth of the three-dimensional model rendered into a distance from the base line. An alpha map generator 7 converts the distance from the base line into an alpha value.
Claims3
A gradation drawing device comprising:
- a model renderer that renders a three-dimensional model arranged on a base line;
- a distance map generator that converts each depth of the three-dimensional model rendered into a distance from said base line;
- and
- an alpha map generator that converts the distance from said base line into an alpha value.

A gradation drawing device comprising:
- a model renderer that renders a three-dimensional model arranged on a base line by using color values respectively corresponding to positions of vertexes of said three-dimensional model;
- a distance map generator that converts each of the color values after the rendering into a distance from said base line;
- and
- an alpha map generator that converts the distance from said base line into an alpha value.
