Visibility computation is a fundamental task in computer graphics, as in many other scientific domains. While it is well understood in two dimensions, this does not remain true in high dimensional spaces. Using Grassmann Algebra, we propose a framework for solving visibility problems in any n-dimensional spaces, for n ≥ 2. Our presentation recalls the problem statement, in two and three dimensions. Then, we formalize the space of n-dimensional lines. Finally, we show how this leads to a global framework for visibility computations, giving an example of use with exact soft shadows.
