Abstract: This paper presents a novel object-space line drawing algorithm that can depict shape with view dependent feature lines in real-time. Strongly inspired by the Laplacian-of-Gaussian (LoG) edge detector in image processing, we define Laplacian Lines as the zero-crossing points of the Laplacian of the surface illumination. Compared to other view dependent features, Laplacian lines are computationally efficient because most expensive computations can be pre-processed. Thus, Laplacian lines are very promising for interactively illustrating large-scale models.
