Line Integral Convolution for Real-Time Illustration of Molecular Surface Shape and Salient Regions

We present a novel line drawing algorithm that illustrates surfaces in real‐time to convey their shape. We use line integral convolution (LIC) and employ ambient occlusion for illustrative surface rendering. Furthermore, our method depicts salient regions based on the illumination gradient. Our meth...
