Entertainment
One of the main goals of todays special effects producers and
animators is to create images with highest levels of
photorealism. Volume graphics is the key technology to provide
full immersion in upcoming virtual worlds e.g. movies or computer
games. Real world phenomena can be realized best with true physics
based models and volume graphics is the tool to generate,
visualize and even feel these models! Movies like Star Wars
Episode I, Titanic and The Fifth Element already started employing
true physics based effects.

Voxel data can be used to visualize the most fascinating and
complex facts in the world. The visualization of the human body
and medical content creation is an example. Voxel data sets like
CT or MRI scans or the exciting Visible Human data show all the
finest details up to the the gross structures of the human
anatomy. Images rendered by Volume Graphics 3D graphics software
are already used for US TV productions as well as for advertising.
Volume Graphics cooperates with companies specialized on Video and
TV productions as well as with advertising agencies. For more
