Abstract
When displaying abstract objects, as in the case of scientific visualization, it is manadatory to give the user a maximum of cues to help him understand the displayed structures. In this short note, we describe two general, simple 2D postprocessing tools and their applications for the improvement of 3D perception by means of simulation of realistic 3D effects.
