Studying breaking waves with Dr. Donald House during Pacific Graphics '07 Conference (Maui, Hawaii). Things you gotta do in the name of research!

Resourses

Hair Model Files

The hair models I used for my earlier research projects have been online for a long time. They have been used by many researchers for various hair-related computer graphics research projects. You can download and use them as well.

Yarn-level Cloth Model Files

You can download and use the yarn-level cloth models I prepared for your personal or research projects.
