A Texture‐Free Multi‐Scale Model for Surface‐Based Rendering of Knitted Fabrics
Computer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.Abstract Knitted fabrics present unique challenges for realistic rendering due to their complicated structure and scale‐dependent appearance. Existing methods typically rely on explicit yarn geometry, which is computationally complex, or texture‐based representations that require heavy storage and precomputed maps. In this paper, we introduce the first
