They are also present in other applications, such as mesostructure rendering. However, height maps are incapable of representing overhangs or self-folding surfaces, as well as several occluding objects. In this paper we propose a novel representation to overcome these limitations. A Solid Height-map Set is used to represent arbitrary solid geometry. We also describe a procedure to convert polygonal meshes into our scheme. In addition, we develop a visualization algorithm capable of efficiently rendering this novel representation and implement it using GPU programming. Results achieve an order of magnitude in memory savings as well as high performance independent of the original mesh size.\n\n# Description\n\nSHS construction is implemented in src/LayerGenerator.* together with the shaders directory.\n\nSHS rendering is implemented in src/Canvas.* together with the shaders directory.\n\nPlease check the paper reference above for further implementation details.\n\n# Results\n\nThese are some images generated using our algorithm:\n\n![fig3](https://github.com/potato3d/shs/blob/main/imgs/fig3.png \"Final results\")\n![fig2](https://github.com/potato3d/shs/blob/main/imgs/fig2.png \"Spheres example\")\n![fig1](https://github.com/potato3d/shs/blob/main/imgs/fig1.png \"Dragon example\")\n\n# Build\n\nVisual Studio project files included in visualstudio directory.","funding_links":[],"categories":[],"sub_categories":[],"project_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fpotato3d%2Fshs","html_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/projects/github.com%2Fpotato3d%2Fshs","lists_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fpotato3d%2Fshs/lists"}
