Abstract :
We extend a 2D linear skewed memory organization to 3D and introduce the associated de-skewing scheme designed to provide conflict-free access to projection rays of voxels for use in a volume rendering architecture. This is an application of a 3D linear skewing scheme which supports real-time axonometric projection from 26 primary orientations
