{2+1D} {M}inkowski {D}iagrams},
abstract = {In this paper, a system is proposed which can automatically
generate 2+1D Minkowski diagrams. We show how these spacetime
diagrams reveal more aspects of special relativity than
traditional Minkowski diagrams and can therefore further enhance
the understanding of special relativity. The interactive system is
based on Java3D and can be used as widely applicable learning and
teaching tool. Moreover, we adapt and extend non-photorelastic
rendering techniques to improve the perceptibility of the
diagrams.},
