This is achieved by letting users exploit existing style, color brush, pattern present in thousands of master pieces or photo. Issues including Non-Photorealistic Rendering, Texture synthesis, Color transfer, Segmentation are discussed. Polyloop Smoothing (2005) Instructor: Prof. Jarek Rossignac Planar curves may contain undesired noises or details. The project explores the smoothing technique involving moving position of sample points along the curve. Naive techniques usually reduce the area enclosed by the curve. Several smoothing techniques are introduced and discussed. Finally, we proposed an approach named "Anglee" which is designed to filter out high frequency noise while the low frequency portion and the area enclosed are preserved. Digital Video Special Effect (2005) Instructor: Prof. Irfan Essa Fancy movie effects have been created. For the final production, together with two teammates, I went through the whole process of film production. Our effect was like the one in HP's well-known commercial picture book but funnier. AGORA (2004) Instructor: Prof. Colin Potts A project with a student from department of architecture. The AGORA system aims at assisting residents of a community in the processes of selecting a new community building which involves communicate with architecture companies. Project includes: understanding the problem, design alternative solutions, system prototype, evaluation plan, system evaluation, and presentation. Animating Chinese Landscape Painting (2002) Instructor: Prof. Ming Ouhyoung Utilize IBMR (Image-based modeling and rendering) approaches for making fly-through and walk through animations from a single large landscape painting or panorama. The result animation demonstrates the characteristics of traditional Chinese landscape painting including the use of abstraction. (e.g. spiritual journey and moving-point perspective) EVE (E-vanguard for Emergency) (2002) Instructor: Prof. Feipei Lai Project aims to provide a way to accomplish an integral rescue scheme The system composed of a rescue command post, rescuers, first aiders, and detecting sensors for injured. Each part is well functioned and communicates with all the others using Bluetooth. They are wearable systems with sensors created in a rescuers coat. Blue Genius (2001) Instructor: Prof. Feipei Lai A toolkit that offers simple-to-use APIs and platform to utilize Bluetooth was designed. Two delicate car robots were assembled from scratch to demonstrate the toolkit. During demonstration, the two car robots can response to our commands and communicate with each other via Bluetooth. Project End winning 5th place in IEEE Computer Society International Design Competition World Finals, Washington DC, 2001.
