Abstract

ABSTRACT: We present a real‐time algorithm for realistically deforming 3D human blood vessels, while automatically detecting and avoiding interference among a large number of blood vessels under deformation. Sweep surfaces are employed for this purpose. Using a dynamic bounding volume hierarchy, specially designed for sweep surfaces, we support collision detection and other related geometric computations in real time.
