Ambient occlusion

In 3D computer graphics, modeling, and animation, ambient occlusion is a shading and rendering technique used to calculate how exposed each point in a scene is to ambient lighting.

See Voreen and Ambient occlusion

C++

C++ (pronounced "C plus plus" and sometimes abbreviated as CPP) is a high-level, general-purpose programming language created by Danish computer scientist Bjarne Stroustrup.

See Voreen and C++

In computing, cross-platform software (also called multi-platform software, platform-agnostic software, or platform-independent software) is computer software that is designed to work in several computing platforms.

See Voreen and Cross-platform software

DICOM

Digital Imaging and Communications in Medicine (DICOM) is a technical standard for the digital storage and transmission of medical images and related information.

See Voreen and DICOM

Edge detection

Edge detection includes a variety of mathematical methods that aim at identifying edges, defined as curves in a digital image at which the image brightness changes sharply or, more formally, has discontinuities.

See Voreen and Edge detection

FFmpeg

FFmpeg is a free and open-source software project consisting of a suite of libraries and programs for handling video, audio, and other multimedia files and streams.

See Voreen and FFmpeg

Germany

Germany, officially the Federal Republic of Germany (FRG), is a country in Central Europe.

See Voreen and Germany

GNU General Public License

The GNU General Public License (GNU GPL or simply GPL) is a series of widely used free software licenses, or copyleft, that guarantee end users the four freedoms to run, study, share, and modify the software.

See Voreen and GNU General Public License

Graphics processing unit

A graphics processing unit (GPU) is a specialized electronic circuit initially designed for digital image processing and to accelerate computer graphics, being present either as a discrete video card or embedded on motherboards, mobile phones, personal computers, workstations, and game consoles.

See Voreen and Graphics processing unit

Hierarchical Data Format

Hierarchical Data Format (HDF) is a set of file formats (HDF4, HDF5) designed to store and organize large amounts of data.

See Voreen and Hierarchical Data Format

Isosurface

An isosurface is a three-dimensional analog of an isoline.

See Voreen and Isosurface

Linux

Linux is both an open-source Unix-like kernel and a generic name for a family of open-source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991, by Linus Torvalds.

See Voreen and Linux

List of common shading algorithms

This article lists common shading algorithms used in computer graphics.

See Voreen and List of common shading algorithms

Maximum intensity projection

In scientific visualization, a maximum intensity projection (MIP) is a method for 3D data that projects in the visualization plane the voxels with maximum intensity that fall in the way of parallel rays traced from the viewpoint to the plane of projection.

See Voreen and Maximum intensity projection

Microsoft Windows

Microsoft Windows is a product line of proprietary graphical operating systems developed and marketed by Microsoft.

See Voreen and Microsoft Windows

Non-photorealistic rendering

Non-photorealistic rendering (NPR) is an area of computer graphics that focuses on enabling a wide variety of expressive styles for digital art, in contrast to traditional computer graphics, which focuses on photorealism.

See Voreen and Non-photorealistic rendering

Open-source software

Open-source software (OSS) is computer software that is released under a license in which the copyright holder grants users the rights to use, study, change, and distribute the software and its source code to anyone and for any purpose.

See Voreen and Open-source software

OpenCL

OpenCL (Open Computing Language) is a framework for writing programs that execute across heterogeneous platforms consisting of central processing units (CPUs), graphics processing units (GPUs), digital signal processors (DSPs), field-programmable gate arrays (FPGAs) and other processors or hardware accelerators.

See Voreen and OpenCL

OpenGL

OpenGL (Open Graphics Library) is a cross-language, cross-platform application programming interface (API) for rendering 2D and 3D vector graphics.

See Voreen and OpenGL

OpenGL Shading Language

OpenGL Shading Language (GLSL) is a high-level shading language with a syntax based on the C programming language.

See Voreen and OpenGL Shading Language

Order-independent transparency

Order-independent transparency (OIT) is a class of techniques in rasterisational computer graphics for rendering transparency in a 3D scene, which do not require rendering geometry in sorted order for alpha compositing.

See Voreen and Order-independent transparency

Palette (computing)

In computer graphics, a palette is the set of available colors from which an image can be made.

See Voreen and Palette (computing)

Phong reflection model

The Phong reflection model (also called Phong illumination or Phong lighting) is an empirical model of the local illumination of points on a surface designed by the computer graphics researcher Bui Tuong Phong.

See Voreen and Phong reflection model

Python (programming language)

Python is a high-level, general-purpose programming language.

See Voreen and Python (programming language)

Qt (software)

Qt (pronounced "cute" or as an initialism) is cross-platform application development framework for creating graphical user interfaces as well as cross-platform applications that run on various software and hardware platforms such as Linux, Windows, macOS, Android or embedded systems with little or no change in the underlying codebase while still being a native application with native capabilities and speed. Voreen and Qt (software) are free software programmed in C++.

See Voreen and Qt (software)
