What is Efficient Impostor Rendering Technique about?

The document describes a technique called True Impostors that allows adding detailed 3D models to a scene without rendering large numbers of polygons. It uses modern graphics hardware to perform ray casting into texture-defined volumes. Each pixel on an impostor corresponds to a point on its virtual screen. By casting rays from these points into the volumes, the correct color for each target pixel can be found. This supports effects like self-shadowing, reflection, refraction, animation, and efficient dista
