This project focuses on techniques for photorealistic visualization of sampled scalar, vector, and tensor fields of three spatial dimensions --- i.e. volume data. A key requirement of the photorealistic approach is real-time image generation. The goal is to provide tools of sufficient power and polish that scientists and physicians, not their assistants, will use them. Since no commercial workstation is capable of rendering usefully large volume datasets in real-time, the research plan includes a significant architectural component.

该项目侧重于三维空间（即体积数据）的采样标量、矢量和张量场的逼真可视化技术。真实感方法的一个关键要求是实时图像生成。我们的目标是提供足够强大和精良的工具，供科学家和医生使用，而不是他们的助手。由于没有商业工作站能够实时呈现有用的大容量数据集，因此研究计划包括一个重要的架构组件。
