  • Rendering collisions of three-dimensional models
    Patent number: 6798415
    Abstract: Rendering a three-dimensional model comprised of three-dimensional data defining a bone includes obtaining a point at which the bone intersects a collision surface, determining a correction factor for use in rotating the bone from the point to a position in front of the collision surface, and rendering the three-dimensional model, including the bone, using the correction factor.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: June 21, 2001
    Date of Patent: September 28, 2004
    Assignee: Intel Corporation
    Inventors: Adam T. Lake, Carl S. Marshall, Daniel P. Horowitz
  • Squash and stretch three-dimensional rendering
    Patent number: 6593927
    Abstract: Rendering a three-dimensional model comprised of three-dimensional data defining a bone and a polygon includes determining a location of a vertex of the polygon relative to the bone, transforming the vertex based on the location to produce a transformed vertex, and rendering the three-dimensional model using the transformed vertex. Determining the location of the vertex includes obtaining a plane that intersects the bone and determining a side of the plane on which the vertex is located.
