PovClipse is an eclipse plug-in for POV-Ray and MegaPOV. Since the original tutorial assumes Windows, I briefly write how to setup on Ubuntu. Edit povray.conf If rendering fails, you should add the following command in ~/.povray/3.6/povray…

Contrast to POV-Ray on Windows, POV-Ray on Linux does not contain GUI*. Just for editing, any editor is fine, however, we'd also like render images while editing. In such sense, we prefer editor with rendering function. There exist several…

For rendering lens distorted images, I installed POV-Ray 3.6.1 and then apply the patch provided by Clemens Rabe. building environment sudo apt-get install build-essentials supporting libraries The following supporting libraries are needed…

I found a cool toolbox!! I tried the basic functions for synthesize images with different parameters. It runs faster than my MatLab code! I'll dive into the code for more detail, especially how to apply intrinsic/extrinsic parameters and l…

I mentioned rendering images with lens distortion effect. It could be possible Clemens Rabe's patch. However, I'm giving up it because I couldn't compile povray under windows... One solution is install linux on virtual PC and apply the pat…

pause function works well to call graph/plot in a loop. Suppose, you want to show a sequence of images in a for loop. If processes in a loop is not heavy, imshow() only shows image after the loop has executed. The code spends enough time t…
