Abstract
Fast Oriented Line Integral Convolution (FROLIC), which is
a variant
of LIC, illustrates 2D vector fields by approximating a
streamlet by
a set of disks with varying intensity. FROLIC does not only
show the
direction of the flow but also its orientation.
This paper presents color-table animation of FROLIC images.
Various
color-table compositions are discussed in detail. When
animating
FROLIC images visual artifacts (pulsation, synchronization)
must be
avoided. Several strategies in this respect are dealt with.
Color-table animation of FROLIC has been implemented as
Visual C++
application for Windows NT, whereby the calculation of the
dynamical
system is performed with Mathematica. This allows
researchers from
various disciplines to conveniently explore and investigate
analytically defined 2D and 3D vector fields.
