Abstract
A method and system for surfacing of particle systems is proposed to achieve high surface resolutions and low execution times, comprising partitioning particles into sub-blocks, each sub-block associated linear data arrays, sequentially accessing each array to composite the particles into a respective sub-volume using estimates of grid stencils derived from particle kernels, performing random-access into the sub-volumes, processing each linear array, and lexicographically pushing the corresponding sub-volume into a DT-Grid to convert the sub-volume to a narrow band level set. Further steps to improve the temporal coherence of resulting surface, to reduce artifacts from sparsely sampled regions of space, to enhance artistic expression, and for flexible post processing can be performed.
