Abstract:
1. A reconstructable geometry mapping method comprising: extracting geometry information of a plurality of occluding geometry shapes of an object's front-face with respect to a light source's point of view; performing a consistency test on a testing pixel so as to determine an occluding geometry shape corresponding to the testing pixel from the object's front-face among the plurality of occluding geometry shapes; reconstructing a depth value of an occluding point corresponding to the testing pixel; and performing a shadow determination of the testing pixel, wherein coordinates of the testing pixel are (p.x, p.y, p.z), and the consistency test comprises: selecting one of the geometry shapes; reading geometry information of the selected geometry shape, the geometry information including vertex coordinates (v obtaining coordinate weight values (w determining whether the selected geometry shape is consistent according to the coordinate weight values (w determining the selected geometry shape as the occluding geometry shape-when the selected geometry shape is determined to be consistent.
