A Hidden Line Algorithm for Halftone Picture Representation

Abstract

The purpose of the paper is to consider the problem of producing two dimensional picture representations of objects described in three dimensional space. In discussing the main problem of the removal of hidden surfaces in a picture representation, the motivating philosophy of a particular approach is closely examined, and a possible implementation of this approach is described. The advantages of the scheme are also outlined in the paper. (Author)
