The details of the objects in the scene may reveal one very small radioactive barrel in the corner of a large room. The overview allows the fast selection of areas of interest and decision-making on orientation of the model. Therefore, this research addresses the issue of enhancing data sets with multi-resolution capabilities. This project involves defining a strategy for reducing data and building a progressive multi-resolution data structure for maintaining a constant interactivity during data display. The data reduction method based on pattern vector allows information selection.
Patterns are geometric and indicate the color and the type associated with each vertex.
The constant interactivity is maintained by selecting the optimal resolution that allows users to reach a desired frame rate during data display.
