Basic Stragegy

Three steps to applying a texture

Specify the texture

Read or generate image

Assign to texture

Enable texturing

Assign texture coordinates to vertices

"Tack it up"

Proper mapping function is left to application

Specify texture parameters

Wrapping, filtering, sampling

8

Texture Mapping and the OpenGL Pipeline

geometry pipelinevertices

pixel pipelineimage

rasterizer

Images and geometry flow through separate pipelines

Join at the rasterizer

“Complex” textures do not affect geometric complexity

9

Define a texture image from an array of texels (texture elements) in CPU memory

Define as any other pixel map

Scanned image

Generate by application code

Enable texture mapping

OpenGL supports 1-4 dimensional texture maps

WebGL is limited to 1-2 dimensional texture maps

Specifying a Texture Image

"Tacking it up"

Based on parametric texture coordinates

Mapping a Texture

Mapping a Texture

var texCoord = [

vec2(0, 0),

vec2(0, 1),

vec2(1, 1),

vec2(1, 0)

];

pointsArray.push(vertices[a]);

colorsArray.push(vertexColors[a]);

texCoordsArray.push(texCoord[0]);

Applying Textures II

1. specify textures in texture objects2. set texture filter (minification/magnification)3. set texture function 4. set texture wrap mode5. set optional perspective correction hint6. bind texture object 7. enable texturing8. supply texture coordinates for vertex

coordinates can also be generated

14

In practice

Let's walk through a simple example

We create two textures

As we image the object (a cube) we tie a texture coordinate to each vertex

We enable texture mapping

textureCubev2.js

// Create a checkerboard pattern

var image1 = new Array()

for (var i =0; i<texSize; i++)

image1[i] = new Array();


for ( var j = 0; j < texSize; j++)

image1[i][j] = new Float32Array(4);


for (var j=0; j<texSize; j++) {

var c = (((i & 0x8) == 0) ^ ((j & 0x8) == 0));

image1[i][j] = [c, c, c, 1];

}

textureCubev2.js

// Create a checkerboard pattern using floats

...

// Convert floats to ubytes for texture

var image2 = new Uint8Array(4*texSize*texSize);

for ( var i = 0; i < texSize; i++ )

for ( var j = 0; j < texSize; j++ )

for(var k =0; k<4; k++)

image2[4*texSize*i+4*j+k] = 255*image1[i][j][k];

17

Texture Objectsfunction configureTexture(image) {

texture = gl.createTexture();

gl.activeTexture( gl.TEXTURE0 );

gl.bindTexture( gl.TEXTURE_2D, texture );

gl.pixelStorei(gl.UNPACK_FLIP_Y_WEBGL, true);

gl.texImage2D(gl.TEXTURE_2D, 0, gl.RGBA, texSize, texSize, 0, gl.RGBA, gl.UNSIGNED_BYTE, image);

gl.generateMipmap( gl.TEXTURE_2D );gl.texParameteri( gl.TEXTURE_2D, gl.TEXTURE_MIN_FILTER,

gl.NEAREST_MIPMAP_LINEAR);

gl.texParameteri( gl.TEXTURE_2D, gl.TEXTURE_MAG_FILTER, gl.NEAREST );

}

18

Define Image as a Texture

void texImage2D(GLenum target, GLint level, GLenum internalformat, GLenum format, GLenum type, ImageData? pixels);

gl.texImage2D( gl.TEXTURE_2D, 0, gl.RGB, gl.RGB, gl.UNSIGNED_BYTE, image );

target: type of texture, e.g. GL_TEXTURE_2Dlevel: used for mipmapping (discussed later)internalformat, format, type: describe texelspixels: pointer to texel array

19

Converting A Texture Image

OpenGL requires texture dimensions to be powers of 2

Even more limited in WebGL

If dimensions of image are not powers of 2

gluScaleImage( format, w_in, h_in, type_in, *data_in, w_out, h_out, type_out, *data_out );

data_in is source image

data_out is for destination image

Image interpolated and filtered during scaling

Check your system: GL_ARB_texture_non_power_of_two

In practicevar cBuffer = gl.createBuffer();

gl.bindBuffer( gl.ARRAY_BUFFER, cBuffer);

gl.bufferData( gl.ARRAY_BUFFER, flatten(colorsArray), gl.STATIC_DRAW );

var vColor = gl.getAttribLocation( program, "vColor" );

gl.vertexAttribPointer(vColor, 4, gl.FLOAT, false, 0, 0);

gl.enableVertexAttribArray(vColor);

var vBuffer = gl.createBuffer();

gl.bindBuffer( gl.ARRAY_BUFFER, vBuffer);

gl.bufferData( gl.ARRAY_BUFFER, flatten(pointsArray), gl.STATIC_DRAW);

var vPosition = gl.getAttribLocation( program, "vPosition" );

gl.vertexAttribPointer( vPosition, 4, gl.FLOAT, false, 0, 0);

gl.enableVertexAttribArray(vPosition);

var tBuffer = gl.createBuffer();

gl.bindBuffer( gl.ARRAY_BUFFER, tBuffer);

gl.bufferData( gl.ARRAY_BUFFER, flatten(texCoordsArray), gl.STATIC_DRAW );

var vTexCoord = gl.getAttribLocation( program, "vTexCoord");

gl.vertexAttribPointer(vTexCoord, 2, gl.FLOAT, false, 0, 0);

gl.enableVertexAttribArray(vTexCoord);

configureTexture(image2);

Passing in three attributes per vertex

Pin Textures

function quad(a, b, c, d)

{

pointsArray.push(vertices[a]);



pointsArray.push(vertices[b]);

Magnification and Minification

Texture Polygon

Magnification Minification

PolygonTexture

More than one texel can cover a pixel (minification) ormore than one pixel can cover a texel (magnification)

Can use point sampling (nearest texel) or linear filtering ( 2 x 2 filter) to obtain texture values

24

Filter ModesModes defined by calls totexParameteri( target, type, mode )

texParameteri(GL_TEXTURE_2D, GL_TEXTURE_MAG_FILTER, GL_NEAREST);

texParameteri(GL_TEXTURE_2D, GL_TEXTURE_MIN_FILTER, GL_LINEAR);

Linear filtering requires a border of an extra texel for filtering at edges (border = 1)

25

Mipmapped TexturesMipmapping define prefiltered texture maps of

decreasing resolutions

Lessens interpolation errors for smaller objects

Declare mipmap level of image when defining texturetexImage2D( GL_TEXTURE_2D, 0, … )

Mipmap generate will build all the textures from imagegenerateMipmap( gl.TEXTURE_2D );

Can also load your own…

MipMapping

26

Reading in a Texture

OpenGL does not have any way to read images

It is equally bad at JPG, TIFF, etc

In the past I have spent time showing how to read .ppm files, a very simple graphics format.

27

PPM FilesPortable Pixel Map (PPM) files are a simple, uncompressed format

Can be read by xv and gimp (GNU Image Manipulation Program).

I use GraphicConverter from Lemksoft

Header holds

Version String

# One or more comments

width height maxval

Example

P6

# Created by Paint Shop Pro 5

128 128

# Could have more comments between values

255

&@#$5%%...

OpenGL does not support reading or writing graphical images (JPG, PNG, etc)

The .ppm format is simple enough for us to create utility to read a file

ReadPPMFile Header

/* Read a P6 PPM File */

int readPPMFile(GLubyte image[MAX][MAX][3], char *filename) {

FILE* fp;

int i, w, h, m;

char head[70]; /* max line <= 70 in PPM (per spec). */

fp = fopen(filename, "rb");

if (!fp) {

perror(filename);

exit(1);

}

/* Check for the PPM Magic number, P6 */

fgets(head, 70, fp);

if (strncmp(head, "P6", 2)) {

fprintf(stderr, "%s: Not a raw PPM file\n", filename);

exit(1);

}

ReadPPMFile Header

/* grab the three elements in the header (width, height, maxval). */

i = 0;

while (i < 3) {

fgets(head, 70, fp);

if (head[0] == '#') /* skip comments. */

continue;

if (i == 0)

i += sscanf(head, "%d %d %d", &w, &h, &m);

else if (i == 1)

i += sscanf(head, "%d %d", &h, &m);

else if (i == 2)

i += sscanf(head, "%d", &m);

}

if ((w != MAX) || (h != MAX) || (m > 255))

30

The work in ReadPPMFile/* Read a P6 PPM File */

int readPPMFile(GLubyte img[MAX][MAX][3], char *fname) {

...

fread(image, sizeof(unsigned char), w*h*3, fp);

fclose(fp);

return 1;

}

int main(int argc, char **argv) {

...

if ((argc > 1) && (argv[1][0] != '-'))

readPPMFile(image, argv[1]);

Texture Parameters

OpenGL has a variety of parameters that determine how texture is applied

We have seen wrapping parameters which determine what happens if s and t are outside the (0,1) range

Filter modes allow us to use area averaging instead of point samples

Mipmapping allows us to use textures at multiple resolutions

Environment parameters determine how texture mapping interacts with shading

Texture Functions

Controls how texture is applied

glTexEnv{fi}[v]( GL_TEXTURE_ENV, prop, param )

GL_TEXTURE_ENV_MODE modesGL_MODULATE: modulates with computed shade

GL_BLEND: blends with an environmental color

GL_REPLACE: use only texture colorGL(GL_TEXTURE_ENV, GL_TEXTURE_ENV_MODE, GL_MODULATE);

Set blend color with GL_TEXTURE_ENV_COLOR

36

InterpolationOpenGL uses interpolation to find proper texels from specified texture

coordinates

Can be distortions

good selectionof tex coordinates

poor selectionof tex coordinates

texture stretchedover trapezoid showing effects of bilinear interpolation

37

Aliasing

Point sampling of the texture can lead to aliasing errors

point samples in u,v (or x,y,z) space

point samples in texture space

miss blue stripes

38

Aliasing

Point sampling of the texture can lead to aliasing errors

The Nyquist limit

point samples in u,v (or x,y,z) space

point samples in texture space

miss blue stripes

39

Nyquist Limit

To reconstruct a signal, must sample at over twice the frequency

Aliasing

40

Undersampling - holes

41

42

Area Averaging

Note that preimage of pixel is curved

pixelpreimage

A better but slower option is to use area averaging

Acts as a low pass filter

Prefiltering

Supersampling

45

Some Algorithms

46

We could look for the nearest textel – GL_NEAREST

We could average 4 – GL_LINEAR

We could MipMap and take best fit – GL_NEAREST_MIPMAP_X

Then apply NEAREST of LINEAR

We could MipMap and take bracketing maps GL_LINEAR_MIPMAP_X

Then apply NEAREST of LINEAR

With change in Z

Perlin Noise

54

A special random number generator

http://mrl.nyu.edu/~perlin/doc/oscar.html#noise

www.noisemachine.com/talk1/

Widely used to make realistic messes

Marble

Dirty surfaces

Perlin won an Oscar for his work on Tron

56

Coordinate Systems

Although the idea is simple---map an image to a surface---there are 4 coordinate systems involved

Parametric coordinates

May be used to model curves and surfaces

Texture coordinates

Used to identify points in the image to be mapped

Object or World Coordinates

Conceptually, where the mapping takes place

Window Coordinates

Where the final image is really produced

57

Texture Mapping

parametric coordinates

texture coordinates

world coordinateswindow coordinates

58

Mapping Functions

We often have a natural map from texture coordinates to a point on a surface For example, a torus (surface of a donut)

But we really want to go the other wayFrom (x, y, z) to (s, t)

s

t

(x,y,z)

(x, y, z) ((rb ra sin)cos, ra cos, (rb ra sin)sin)

Where is my color?

59

60

Backward Mapping

Given a pixel in screen space, we want to know to which point on an object it corresponds

Given a point on an object, we want to know to which point in the texture it corresponds

Need a map of the form

s = s(x,y,z)

t = t(x,y,z)

Such functions are difficult to find in general

In our cube example, we can interpolate over the corners

Issues with Perspective, Aliasing

61

Two-part mapping

One solution to the mapping problem is to first map the texture to a simple intermediate surface

Example: map to cylinder

Look at the man page for glTexGenX()

I do not see evidence for support in WebGL for this

Cylinder

Second Mapping

74

Perspective Correction Hint

Texture coordinate and color interpolation

either linearly in screen space

or using depth/perspective values (slower)

Noticeable for polygons “on edge”

glHint(GL_PERSPECTIVE_CORRECTION_HINT, hint)

where hint is one of

GL_DONT_CARE

GL_NICEST

GL_FASTEST

Ray Tracing vs Env Map

75

Bump Mapping

76

Displacement Maps

79

Bump maps are an illusion

Do not affect the silhouette

To change the surface itself, we have to work harder

True "Displacement Mapping" is more work

We could move each vertex of a finely triangulated mesh

80

Billboard

Used to create complex images

Draw the image perpendicular to ray from viewer

As you move, the billboard rotates to face you

Background of billboard is transparent

81

Summary

Texture mapping is an efficient way to add visual interest

The texture can be procedural, or defined by an image

It is not easy to paste an image onto a curved surface

Other problems arise when using perspective

OpenGL provides many options to work around these issues.
