Rendering Optical Effects Based on Spectra Representation in Complex Scenes
نویسنده
چکیده
Rendering the structural color of natural objects or modern industrial products in the 3D environment is not possible with RGBbased graphics platforms and software and very time consuming, even with the most efficient spectra representation based methods previously proposed. Our framework allows computing full spectra light object interactions only when it is needed, i.e. for the part of the scene that requires simulating special spectra sensitive phenomena. Achieving the rendering of complex scenes with both the full spectra and RGB light and object interactions in a ray-tracer costs only some additional fractions of seconds. To prove the efficiency of our framework, we implemented a “Multilayer Film” in a simple ray-tracer. However, the framework is convenient for any complex lighting model, including diffraction or fluorescence.

Layered Environment-Map Impostors for Arbitrary Scenes
This paper presents a new impostor-based approach to accelerate the rendering of very complex static scenes. The scene is partitioned into viewing regions, and a layered impostor representation is precalculated for each of them. An optimal placement of impostor layers guarantees that our representation is indistinguishable from the original geometry. Furthermore the algorithm exploits common gr...
متن کاملCombining Edges and Points for Interactive Anti-Aliased Rendering
This paper presents a new rendering and display paradigm that uses both discontinuities (edges) and sparsely sampled shading (points) to interactively generate anti-aliased images of complex scenes. Geometric and shadow discontinuities in the image are found at interactive rates using a novel data structure, the Normal–Position Interval tree, and algorithms based on interval arithmetic. After p...
متن کاملSTAR: A Survey of Cloud Lighting and Rendering Techniques
The rendering of participating media still forms a big challenge for computer graphics. This remark is particularly true for real-world clouds with their inhomogeneous density distributions, large range of spatial scales and different forms of appearance. We survey techniques for cloud visualization and classify them relative to the type of volume representation, lighting and rendering techniqu...
متن کاملImage-based Objects Image-based Objects
We present a compact, image-based representation for three-dimensional objects with complex shapes that can be rendered with correct perspective from arbitrary viewpoints using a list priority algorithm. Objects are represented by six layered depth images sharing a single center of projection. They can be freely translated, rotated, and scaled, being used as primitives to construct complex scen...
متن کاملImage-based Rendering of Complex Scenes from a Multi-Camera Rig
Image-based rendering is a method to synthesize novel views from a set of given real images. This contribution describes two methods to extrapolate novel views of complex scenes with occlusions and large depth discontinuities from images of a moving uncalibrated multi-camera rig. The real camera viewpoints are calibrated from the image data and dense depth maps are estimated for each real view....
