Practical logarithmic rasterization for low-error shadow maps
Logarithmic shadow maps can deliver the same quality as competing shadow map algorithms with substantially less storage and bandwidth. We show how current GPU architectures can be...

Efficient Shadows for Sampled Environment Maps
This paper addresses the problem of efficiently calculating shadows from environment maps in the context of ray-tracing. Since accurate rendering of shadows from environment maps ...

Rendering Soft Shadows using Multilayered Shadow Fins
Generating soft shadows in real time is difficult. Exact methods (such as ray tracing, and multiple light source simulation) are too slow, while approximate methods often overesti...

Usage of needle maps and shadows to overcome depth edges in depth map reconstruction
Photometric stereo is a method of recovering surface normals (needle map) from images. The surface integral of surface normals is used to reconstruct a depth map; however, the dep...

Real-Time Shadow Volume Algorithm for Subdivision Surface Based Models
This paper presents a purely hardware-accelerated shadow volume algorithm for subdivision surface based models. By introducing SP (subdivision patterns), all procedures, including ...
