SUMMARY

This discussion focuses on the concept of simulating the movement of 3D clouds between two distinct time points, t1 and t2, using interpolation techniques. Participants mention methods such as linear interpolation and Bezier curves to achieve this effect. The conversation highlights the challenge of transforming cloud structures based solely on their volumetric data without additional parameters. Ultimately, the feasibility of simulating realistic cloud movement remains a topic of exploration.

PREREQUISITES
  • Understanding of 3D cloud simulation techniques
  • Familiarity with interpolation methods, specifically linear interpolation and Bezier curves
  • Knowledge of volumetric data representation
  • Basic principles of image processing in simulations
NEXT STEPS
  • Research advanced interpolation techniques for 3D graphics
  • Explore volumetric rendering methods for cloud simulations
  • Learn about physics-based simulations for realistic cloud movement
  • Investigate software tools for 3D modeling and simulation, such as Blender or Unity
USEFUL FOR

This discussion is beneficial for 3D graphics developers, simulation engineers, and researchers interested in atmospheric modeling and cloud dynamics.

Assuming we have 3D clouds at time t1 and t2 in the same area, I'd like to discuss you about the idea moving cloud between two different times. (just in simulation)

(there is no any parameter, only cloud volume in the each position) :bugeye: :bugeye:

What??

You want to ... figure out how to ... move a cloud from ... time t1 to time t2.

Uh... well, if it's a calm day, it will get there itself. All you have to do is wait...

Oh.. sorry.. it might not be clear.
I meant, is it imposible to transform clouds between two different times that we know only their structures? (may be .. like an interpolation)

I saw someone used linear interpolation, bezier curve, and other method to work on it. But it might have the other ways to move cloud like "real cloud" insteads of using the image processing method.

Thank you very much :smile:

ah.. it looks like a good idea... but ahh... >_<" ... noooo!
