Abstract:
1. A non-transitory computer readable storage medium comprising: a computer-readable code for executing a method for image processing, the method comprising the steps of rendering grid lines on an object surface; concurrently rendering a plurality of moving indicator objects, each moving only on a respective one of the grid lines at a speed responsive to a slope angle on the object surface on which the grid lines are provided, the moving indicator objects being rendered for each spacing between lattice points of the grid lines; moving each of the plurality of moving indicator objects from a first corresponding lattice point at a high position to a second corresponding lattice point at a low position; and when each moving indicator object reaches the second corresponding lattice point at the low position, deleting the moving indicator object and rendering the moving indicator object again on the first corresponding lattice point at the high position; wherein the grid lines are rendered by projecting the lattice points directly onto the object surface and joining the projected lattice points by respective line segments, or by applying grid lines directly onto the object surface; and wherein the grid lines are rendered in accordance with a viewing direction specified by a player and in a density corresponding to the slope angle of the object surface.
