Abstract

We present volume warping, a technique for deforming sampled volumetric data using B-splines that is related to image warping and to the free-form deformations of Sederberg/Parry and Coquillart. We accelerate the process to near-real-time speed, and explain the compromises that are made to effect such speeds. This technique expands the repertoire of volumetric modeling techniques, and can be applied to any form of volumetric data.
