Animation is completed in accordance with the original planning of visual direction in the process of post-production. Especially, a variety of visualization skills to meet the planning idea are directed in editing and compositing processes such as rendering and shading in the production of 3D animation. Therefore, the studies how to implement these visual effects have been conducted since the emergence of the animation. The rendering method which appears in the recent animations so often is the effect of 2D animation style although it is applied by 3D technique. 3D animation can be classified as two types including photo realistic and non-photo realistic renderings. The former is to render the images realistically while the latter is to highlight the formative effect with analogue style free from the realism of the photographs. Visual effect of 2D animation is non-realistic, that is, non-photo realistic rendering. The animations produced by this method have the depth of 3D animation expression in terms of space and animating, and can direct the viewer-friendly analogue style visuals, which are widely used as a post-production effect. Hence in this study, we selected a short animation, 'Paperman,' one of Disney's animations, produced by cartoon rendering method which belongs to the class of non-photo rendering technique in 3D graphics, as our subject. We analyzed their techniques and visual effects of the scenes expressed by cartoon rendering method so as to understand whether they meet the original direction idea with the composition work. In addition, we expect further developments of post-production methods, exceeding the limit of graphic expression in alignment with the trend that has become more various in the types and genres of non-photo rendering.

In recent years, with the rapid development of real-time rendering technology, the quality of the images produced by real-time rendering has been improving, and its application scope has been expanded from games to animation and advertising and other fields. This paper analyses the development status of real-time rendering technology in 3D animation by investigating the 3D animation market in China, which concludes that the number of 3D animations in China has been increasing over the past 20 years, and the number of 3D animations using real-time rendering has been increasing year by year and exceeds that of 3D animations using offline rendering. In this study, a real-time rendering and offline rendering 3D animation are selected respectively to observe the screen effect of characters, special effects and environment props, and analyse the advantages and disadvantages of the two rendering technologies, and finally conclude that there is not much difference between real-time rendering 3D animation and offline rendering 3D animation in terms of quality and the overall sense of view, and due to the real-time rendering of the characteristics of the WYSIWYG, the animation designers can better focus on the creation of art performance. Real-time rendering technology has a good development prospect and potential in 3D animation, which paves the way for designers to create 3D content more efficiently.

In computer graphics, according as the rapid development of hardware can realize high-resolution image on the monitor, the more natural and accurate rendering skill is needed gradually, and the studies about high-level rendering algorithm are processing. There are two types in rendering skill. The one is photo-realistic rendering to realize accurate image like photos and the other is real-time rendering to realize rapid real-time render. This paper includes caustics expression about lights and materials of several photo-realistic rendering skills. First this paper analyzes how caustics is used and expressed in movies, and further realizes caustics effect using real renderer. This paper examines objective criterion and capability of plug-in through the objective experiment of renderer. Also this paper analyzes using environment on variables for caustics effect realization. The experimental results can be applied to many rendering works as useful data, and can be used as data to understand characteristic and capability.

Realistic real-time rain streaks rendering has been treated as a very difficult problem because of various natural phenomena. Also, in creating and managing a large number of particles, a large amount of computer resources had to be used. Therefore, in this paper, we propose a more efficient real-time rain streaks rendering algorithm by generating view-dependent rain particles and expressing a large amount of rain even with a small number. By creating a 'rain space' dependent on the field of view of the camera moving in real time, particles are rendered only in that space. Accordingly, even if a small number of particles are rendered, since the rendering is performed in a limited space, an effect of rendering a very large amount of particles can be obtained. This enables very efficient real-time rendering of rain streaks.

Temporal disappearance of weather phenomena effect is frequently observed in flight simulator when large volume of terrain data are processed. This problem was solved by employing culling scheme at static ratio in the existing scheme. However, since this approach causes the irregular rendering speed according to volume of data, it is necessary to develop a new culling scheme to maintain steady rendering speed by adjusting the culling ratio dynamically. In this paper, we propose a new culling scheme to make use of distance of the visibility to determine culling ratio depending on volume of terrain data. The experimental results show that rendering speed is preserved by the proposed scheme without affecting the visuality at rendering the scene and weather phenomena effect together.

The gross composition, gross amino acid content, apparent ileal amino acid digestibility and apparent ileal digestible amino acid content from 64 commercially produced meat and bone meals were statistically analysed. The samples were produced by 22 plants over a 2.5 year period with eight plants using batch dry rendering and 14 plants using low temperature rendering. A linear model with method and time of year (period) as fixed effects, plant within method as a random effect and sheep percent as a covariate was fitted to the composition data. The majority of the variation in the gross composition, amino acid digestibility and digestible amino acid content was explained by differences between plants using the same method. Neither rendering season nor origin of the raw materials contributed significantly to the observed variation in meat and bone meal protein quality. Rendering method (low temperature or batch rendering) had a significant effect on the variation observed in gross fat content, gross energy content, pepsin nitrogen digestibility, protein solubility and total lanthionine content. The digestibility of a number of amino acids and the apparent digestible content of arginine, cysteine, aspartic acid, proline and hydroxyproline were also significantly affected by rendering method. On average, batch dry and low temperature rendering systems produce meat and bone meals of similar nutritional quality. The variation between plant and within plant, however, is large, indicating that purchasing meat and bone meal from the same plant does not guarantee a consistent quality.

VR and AR contents provide a rich user experience [1]. Realistic content with human computer interaction and immersion provides an improved user experience, but there is a limit to producing all elements realistically. In this study, we propose a method to advance the rendering of immersive content using background color information [2]. First, the elements necessary for Kelvin temperature rendering are derived from the color and background as context elements, and the rendering effect has been realized in the soap bubble. For soap bubbles Kelvin temperature rendering, the average color of the background is extracted and the color with the highest similarity is applied by comparing the main color and Kelvin temperature.

Realistic rendering of natural phenomena is a difficult problem. Many environmental factors must be considered to simulate this phenomenon. At the same time, we need to think about their computational complexity to be simulated with computer algorithm One of the most difficult problems in creating weather conditions is the rain. To simulate realistic rainy scene, you have to consider the physical properties of rain and the environmental where the rain is falling down as well. In this paper, we survey the modeling and rendering techniques for realistic rainfall scenes from three different aspects. First, we list up techniques for modeling raindrop dynamics. Second, we survey the rendering techniques that render the raindrop in the environment. Third, we take a look at the hybrid methods that combines the rendering the modeling at the same time. For each aspect, we compare the algorithms in terms of implementation and their speciality.

Ray tracing-based rendering creates by far more realistic images than the traditional rasterization-based rendering. However, it is still burdensome when implemented for a Head-Mounted Display (HMD) system that demands a wide field of view and a high display refresh rate. Furthermore, for presenting high-quality images on the HMD screen, a sufficient number of ray sampling should be carried out per pixel to alleviate visually annoying spatial and temporal aliases. In this paper, we extend the recent selective foveated ray tracing technique by Kim et al. [1], and propose an improved real-time rendering technique that realizes the rendering effect of the classic Whitted-style ray tracing on the HMD system. In particular, by combining the ray tracing hardware-based acceleration technique and time-constrained rendering scheme, we show that fast HMD ray tracing is possible that is well suited to human visual systems.
