Realistic Reflections and Refractions on Graphics Hardware with Hybrid Rendering and Layered Environment Maps
We introduce hybrid rendering, a scheme that dynamically ray traces the local geometry of reflective and refractive objects, but approximates more distant geometry by hardwaresupp...

Predicting reflectance functions from complex surfaces
We describe a physically-based Monte Carlo technique for approximating bidirectional reflectance distribution functions (BRDFs) for a large class of geometries by directly simulat...

Hair photobooth: geometric and photometric acquisition of real hairstyles
We accurately capture the shape and appearance of a person's hairstyle. We use triangulation and a sweep with planes of light for the geometry. Multiple projectors and camera...

Terrain Modeling in Synthetic Aperture Radar Images Using Shape-from-Shading
In this paper we introduce a new approach for recovering shape-from-shading (SFS) from synthetic aperture radar (SAR) images of the terrain. Three contributions are proposed. Firs...

Recovering Shape Characteristics on Near-flat Specular Surfaces
We consider the problem of capturing shape characteristics on specular (refractive and reflective) surfaces that are nearly flat. These surfaces are difficult to model using tradit...
