Shadow Texture Atlas

چکیده
In this paper, we present a new method for creating shadow texture atlas with which we can represent the self-shadow. Shadow texture atlas is a texture atlas with shadow information in each texel. Shadow texture is effective to represent high-quality shadow using the graphics hardware because it stores shadow information as color unlike shadow map which stores depth. However, it cannot represent the self-shadow and it takes a long time to create a shadow texture. To overcome these problems we present shadow texture atlas method. Shadow texture atlas can also represent self-shadow information. Moreover, we use shadow map to create shadow texture atlas instead of drawing all shadow casters. Our experimental result shows that our method performs at linear time and its speed is similar to the traditional shadow map method. Furthermore in comparison with shadow map method, our method can use mipmap filtering which is hard to achieve with shadow map method.

متن کاملAn Efficient Method for Dynamic Shadow Texture Generation
We propose a novel shadow texture generation method with linear processing time using a shadow depth buffer (SZ-Buffer). We also present a method that achieves further speedup using temporal coherence. If the transition between dynamic and static state is not frequent, depth values of static objects does not vary significantly. So we can reuse the depth value for static objects and render only ...
متن کاملTexture-Consistent Shadow Removal
This paper presents an approach to shadow removal that preserves texture consistency between the original shadow and lit area. Illumination reduction in the shadow area not only darkens that area, but also changes the texture characteristics there. We achieve textureconsistent shadow removal by constructing a shadow-free and textureconsistent gradient field. First, we estimate an illumination c...
متن کاملForward Shadow Mapping
Forward shadow mapping is a new approach to real-time shadow generation. The traditional shadow map algorithm maps the pixels in the eye's view backward into the depth buuers of light sources (i.e. shadow maps), which is similiar to and often implemented as an extension to texture mapping. Our algorithm reverses this process by using 3-D image warping techniques to transform shadow map pixels f...
متن کاملMoving Cast Shadow Detection Using Texture Information
In this paper, we have proposed an efficient moving cast shadow detection using texture features. Texture features are estimated using fractal dimension and is employed to discriminate between shadow region and moving foreground region. Complexity and noise reduction is achieved using wavelet transform which has not been performed before in the literature. Block-wise calculation has accelerated...
