Abstract
We consider the problem of computing the visible region of a simple polygon from a line segment in the polygon. The region, called the visibility polygon, is the area that can be illuminated by a tubular light source represented as a line segment. We present an O(nlog n) algorithm for computing the visibility polygon, where n is the number of vertices of the polygon. The algorithm has been implemented in Pascal and some computer output samples are also included.
