ABSTRACT
We present a system for rendering very complex 3D models at
interactive rates. We select a subset of the model as preferred
viewpoints and partition the space into virtual cells. Each cell
contains near geometry, rendered using levels of detail and
visibility culling, and far geometry, rendered as a textured depth
mesh. Our system automatically balances the screen-space errors
