| Interactive Volume Visualization on Consumer Graphics Hardware Volume visualization has so far been restricted to expensive
graphics workstations or special-purpose hardware. New GPUs
of modern graphics cards are a good platform for volume
rendering research due to their high performance and flexibility.
Modern volume rendering methods are using the programmable
graphics pipeline where parts of the former
fixed-function-pipeline can be replaced by small programs. This
results in higher performace and increased image quality.
The applications of our volume rendering methods are manifold.
Among them are medicine, biology, chemistry, flow visualization
etc.
