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...
