Abstract
An algorithm is presented for constructing shadow volumes for CSG objects. For each primitive solid, the algorithm calculates a tree of shadow volumes to model the shadows generated by the shadow-generating parts of the boundary of the primitive. The shadow of the complete CSG object is the union of these shadow trees. An implementation of the algorithm is described for a scan-line display algorithm for CSG objects with polygonal primitives.
