Illuminating micro geometry based on precomputed visibility
Many researchers have been arguing that geometry, bump maps, and BRDFs present a hierarchy of detail that should be exploited for efficient rendering purposes. In practice howeve...

Fast Soft Self-Shadowing on Dynamic Height Fields
We present a new, real-time method for rendering soft shadows from large light sources or lighting environments on dynamic height fields. The method first computes a horizon map f...

Parallel-split shadow maps for large-scale virtual environments
Shadowing effects dramatically enhance the realism of virtual environments by providing useful visual cues. Shadow mapping is an efficient algorithm for real-time shadow renderin...

Image-Based Proxy Accumulation for Real-Time Soft Global Illumination
We present a new, general, and real-time technique for soft global illumination in low-frequency environmental lighting. It accumulates over relatively few spherical proxies which...

A hierarchical volumetric shadow algorithm for single scattering
Volumetric effects such as beams of light through participating media are an important component in the appearance of the natural world. Many such effects can be faithfully modele...
