SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR GENERATING PROCEDURAL TEXTURES WITH THE AID OF PARTICLES

摘要

System for generating textures on an object based on the particles emitted by a particle engine, including an access to data of a particles emitter, of particles emitted, of target object, of traces, and of graphical effects; an animation simulation module provided so as to perform a simulation of emission and of displacement for each of the particles provided; a tracer module provided for generating a trace on the surface of a target object corresponding to the displacement of a particle along said surface after an impact of the particle against the target object with the aid of the traces data and of the target object data; a physical parameters integrator module provided for generating a new set of textures for said object taking into account the data of the object, the data of each now or modified trace, and the data of the corresponding graphical effects. Corresponding method for generating textures.

1. A system for generating procedural textures on an object using the particles emitted by a particle engine, comprising:
access to particle emitter data; to emitted particle data; access to object data relevant to target objects defined by architectural parameters and procedural textures; access to trace data; access to graphical effects data; a microprocessor and control instructions; an animation simulator module, adapted to perform emission and displacement simulation for each of the provided particles using the particle emitter data and emitted particle data; a tracer module for generating a parameterized trace which produces at least one of physical and chemical changes in properties of at least a surface of the object, so as to modify at least one parameter comprising a visible characteristic; and a physical parameter integrator module for: i) performing graphical effects based on the object data and trace data; and ii) generating a first texture set for said object, taking into account the object data and graphical effects previously obtained.
