Abstract:
Mobile devices quickly become popular tools in collaborative design for their portability and supporting of graphics user interface. However, their limited resources may result in the complexity of rendering 3D products. Non-photorealistic rendering is extremely suitable for mobile devices since they efficiently save computational power and convey visual information. In this paper, a new approach is proposed to deal with mobile collaboration based on non-photorealistic rendering. In contrast to traditional methods, our method describes the user's design intent in an XML-based model, which is customizable and improves the collaboration between mobile users.
