Abstract: We present a new approach for modeling plants
which allows for adaptation to geometrical and
material properties of a simulated environment.
The form of a plant is derived from the paths of
one or more automata which begin as seeds and
progressively explore the environment. The automata
sense their surroundings by casting rays
and using intersection information to influence
subsequent patterns of growth. In this way the
power of well-known ray tracing techniques is applied
to a problem of... (Update)

...detects the presence of a supporting pole and winds around it. In contrast to the earlier models of plants growing around obstacles [2,33,34], the L system model captures the nutation, or spiraling movement, of the free stem tip searching for support [44] Fig. 8.7. A...
