In computer generated imagery and real time 3D computer graphics , portal rendering is an algorithm for Hidden surface determination visibility determination . For example, consider a 3D computer game environment, which may contain many polygons, only a few of which may be visible on screen at a given time. By determining which polygons are currently not visible, and not rendering those objects, significant performance improvements can be achieved. A portal system is based on using the partitioning of space to form generalizations about the visibility of objects within those spaces. Regions of map space are divided into polygonal, generally convex, areas called sectors . Adjacent sectors are linked to one another via shared dividing polygons termed portals . Approaches that pre compute visibility for sectors are referred to as potentially visible set or PVS methods. For example, in a computer game such as Descent video game Descent , the game area might be divided into several sectors . These sectors would then be connected to each other by small openings such as doors or windows. These openings are referred to as portals . When the sector behind a portal needs to be drawn, the only parts that are visible are the parts that can be seen through the portal. Therefore, the sector can be clipping computer graphics clipped against the portal boundaries to remove overdraw. The use of portals simplifies the game engine s task of determining visible areas and objects from any given point of view of the level, and simplifies rendering by allowing it to use each portal as a viewing frustum for the area it leads to. Ideally, portals are formed of confined areas like doors or tunnels , connecting two complex areas of the scene, where each of these areas would be enclosed in such a polygonal ... links http www.flipcode.com archives Building a 3D Portal Engine Issue 01 Introduction.shtml Building a 3D Portal Engine Category Computer graphics compu graphics stub de Portal Based Rendering ... more details
File Voltage portal.jpg thumb Cut away view of a voltage portal A Voltage portal extends a voltage source to the outside of an Enclosure electrical electrical enclosure in an encapsulated non conductive housing designed for a Non contact voltage detector NCVD to sense voltage if placed into the voltage portal. Overview A voltage portal avoids voltage exposure for workers by extending the voltage source points to the outside of electrical enclosures. Each voltage point resides in an encapsulated non conductive housing designed to insure that a NCVD senses voltage if placed into the voltage portal Fig. 1 . Because a voltage portal contains Live wire electricity live voltage and mounts on the outside of an electrical enclosure, it must be robust to insure long term safety. The Underwriters Laboratories UL enclosure type rating of the voltage portal must also match the enclosure rating. Maintenance work Many maintenance workers carry NCVD pens or AC voltage detector s in their tool belts. This portable device allows workers to quickly check electrical conductors for live voltage without actually touching the bare wire. The NCVD can sense voltage when positioned close to the live conductor without making a hard wired electrical connection. A voltage portal is used to assist workers in creating an electrically safe work condition as part of a lockout tagout procedure before beginning work on electrical or mechanical equipment.
