Adaptive Cloth Simulations | Two Minute Papers #14

This time, we are going to set foot in cloth simulations that are widely used in the motion picture industry. Adaptive algorithms are a class of techniques that try to adapt at the problem that we have at hand. This adaptive method focuses computational resources to regions which are likely to have fine details (wrinkles) and coarsens the simulation quality in regions that are at rest. This substantially reduces the computation time we need for the cloth simulation step.
