Erosion Based Visibility Preprocessing
Abstract
This paper presents a novel method for computing visibility in 2.5D environments. It is based on a novel theoretical result: the visibility from a region can be conservatively estimated by computing the visibility from a point using appropriately "shrunk" occluders and occludees. We show how approximated but yet conservative shrunk objects can efficiently be computed in a urban environment. The application of this theorem provides a tighter potentially visible set (PVS) than the original method it is built on. Finally, theoretical implications of the theorem are discussed, and we believe it can open new research directions.
