Talk:Stanford Bunny

[edit] Bunny image

This article used to have a picture of the Stanford Bunny, but i9t was remopved because the picture had no copyright tag. Is there an image that is clear of copyright? RJFJR 18:17, 15 February 2006 (UTC)

I believe every image of the bunny by itself is copyright free since the model is provided for personal use at no charge, but I'm not sure. |The Stanford 3d scanning repository] writes the models are provided for free for non-commercial uses so it seems like the model is under a "some rights reserved" license. It is not clear to me if those rights extends to produced images. I would say this is unrealistic since this would require a massive amount of askings to Stanford each time a new rendering technique is developed. I think the images can be distributed for free without permission, as long as credits for the model are given. MaxDZ8 _talk 13:34, 16 February 2006 (UTC)

I rendered a stanford bunny with my 3D engine, added the image as public domain, and remove the "image request" from this discussion page. Jtsiomb 20:52, 23 May 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Limitation

Why is 69,451 triangles considered a small amount? and why is this "small" amount considered a limitation. Is it a limitation when benchmarking rendering performance? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 216.16.231.172 (talk) 14:48, 5 September 2007 (UTC)

Answering my own question: it seems yes 60,000 is small by today's standards and doesn't provide a complex enough surface for compression / simplification algorithms. I've added the "by today's standards" into the article. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 216.16.231.172 (talk) 15:02, 5 September 2007 (UTC)
