However,it is a challenge for computer graphics to simulate such scenes in an authentic and efficient manner. This paper proposes a GPU based approach for simulating the falling motion of many leaves in real time. Firstly,we use a motionsynthesis based method to analyze the falling motion of the leaves,which enables us to describe complex falling trajectories using low-dimensional features. Secondly,we transmit a primitive-motion trajectory dataset together with the low-dimensional features of the falling leaves to video memory,allowing us to execute the appropriate calculations on the GPU.展开更多
