ouj / safegi

implementation of safegi: an rendering system with dimensional analysis.

overview

This package contains the source code implementation of our safegi paper.

build

MacOSX

cd src
./cmake-xcode.sh

Linux

cd src
./cmake-mk.sh

execution

run the executable directly, the images will be generated in the same folder. Image files are ppm format, it can be convert to other formats using ImageMagick.

####[libs\tsafegi]#### typed SafeGI library

• dimensions.h -- contains the dimension definition and dimension analysis implementation mentioned in section 3.1.1 Dimensional Analysis.

• real.h -- basic real number and tuple type without dimension.

• m_real.h -- real number type and tuple types with dimensional constraint.

• m_units.h -- units definition, such as meters, seconds, degrees..

• m_spectrum.h -- spectrum type with dimensional analysis

• spaces.h -- basic space definition, such as shape_s, world_s, local_s, mentioned in section 3.1.1 Space Analysis

• m_geom.h -- geometry type with space analysis implementation mentioned in section 3.2 Geometric Space Analysis.

  • point. contains x,y,z components stores Cartesian coordinates in length dimension.
  • vector. contains x,y,z components in length dimension.
  • direction. directional vector, which is normalized to length 1. Contains x,y,z components in unit dimension.
  • normal. specific direction type represent surface normal
  • rigidmap. rigid mapping type used to transform point, vector, direction and normal from one space to another.

• xform.h -- transform class definition
