Abstract
Systems and methods are provided for generating smooth transitions between volume rendering presets when the volume rendering is used as part of an animation system. A windowing-compensated look-up table interpolation is used to interpolate between adjacent keyframes that include user defined rendering presets. A constrained spline interpolation may be used to prevent overshooting.
