Subdivided Shadow Maps

چکیده
Figure 1: Comparison between trapezoidal shadow maps (TSMs) and subdivided shadow maps. a) TSM with 1K×1K shadow map, b) TSM with 4K×4K shadow map, and c) 1K×1K subdivided shadow map. This configuration with a small angle between the light and view directions is difficult for prior methods. Even with the largest shadow map that can be allocated on current hardware, TSMs are not able to match the quality of subdivided shadow maps for this view.

Translucent Shadow Maps
Shadow maps are a very efficient means to add shadows to arbitrary scenes. In this paper, we introduce Translucent Shadow Maps, an extension to shadow maps which allows very efficient rendering of sub-surface scattering. Translucent Shadow Maps contain depth and incident light information. Sub-surface scattering is computed on-the-fly during rendering by filtering the shadow map neighborhood. T...
متن کاملExtended shadow maps
The most popular methods for interactive hard shadows rendering are shadow volumes and shadow maps. Shadow volumes generate precise shadows but require high fill rate. Due to excessive fill rate requirements, shadow maps are probably the most widely used means for generation of shadows, despite their well known aliasing problems. In this paper, Extended Shadow Maps are introduced, as a means to...
متن کاملDeep Shadow Maps from Volumetric Data on the GPU
A method of generating Deep Shadow Maps from a 3D data set is presented. This method uses ray tracing on the GPU to accumulate opacity and store them in a deep shadow map. The deep shadow map is then sampled based on view direction to determine how much light got to a particular fragment. The shadow maps can also be used to cast shadows onto other objects.
متن کاملHardware-Accelerated Colored Stochastic Shadow Maps
This paper extends the stochastic transparency algorithm that models partial coverage to also model wavelength-varying transmission. It then applies this to the problem of casting shadows between any combination of opaque, colored transmissive, and partially covered (i.e., α-matted) surfaces in a manner compatible with existing hardware shadow mapping techniques. Colored Stochastic Shadow Maps ...
متن کاملConvolution Shadow Maps
We present Convolution Shadow Maps, a novel shadow representation that affords efficient arbitrary linear filtering of shadows. Traditional shadow mapping is inherently non-linear w.r.t. the stored depth values, due to the binary shadow test. We linearize the problem by approximating shadow test as a weighted summation of basis terms. We demonstrate the usefulness of this representation, and sh...
