The many faces of font rendering
Article No.: 58, Pages 1 - 2
Abstract
The popularity of mobile devices is founded on information consumption. As device capabilities increase and displays become more detailed, the demands of text rendering are also increasing.
The aim of this talk is to provide a detailed overview of the problem domain of font rendering, why GPU font rendering methods are now an important consideration and how we can leverage existing hardware pipelines to provide fast, clean and scalable on-screen typography.

Image-based rendering of diffuse, specular and glossy surfaces from a single image
SIGGRAPH '01: Proceedings of the 28th annual conference on Computer graphics and interactive techniquesIn this paper, we present a new method to recover an approximation of the bidirectional reflectance distribution function (BRDF) of the surfaces present in a real scene. This is done from a single photograph and a 3D geometric model of the scene. The ...
Interaction and rendering techniques for handheld phantograms
CHI EA '11: CHI '11 Extended Abstracts on Human Factors in Computing SystemsWe present a number of rendering and interaction techniques that exploit the user's viewpoint for improved realism and immersion in 3D applications on handheld devices. Unlike 3D graphics on stationary screens, graphics on handheld devices are seldom ...
