Combining global and local virtual lights for detailed glossy illumination
Accurately rendering glossy materials in design applications, where previewing and interactivity are important, remains a major challenge. While many fast global illumination solu...

Combining Confocal Imaging and Descattering
In translucent objects, light paths are affected by multiple scattering, which is polluting any observation. Confocal imaging reduces the influence of such global illumination eff...

A Closed-Form Solution to Single Scattering for General Phase Functions and Light Distributions
Due to the intricate nature of the equation governing light transport in participating media, accurately and efficiently simulating radiative energy transfer remains very challeng...

Fast Global Illumination Including Specular Effects
Rapidly simulating global illumination, including diffuse and glossy light transport is a very difficult problem. Finite element or radiosity approaches can achieve interactive si...

Metropolis light transport
We present a new Monte Carlo method for solving the light transport problem, inspired by the Metropolis sampling method in computational physics. To render an image, we generate a...

Shape from Second-bounce of Light Transport
This paper describes a method to recover scene geometry from the second-bounce of light transport. We show that form factors (up to a scaling ambiguity) can be derived from the sec...

Analysis of Light Transport in Scattering Media
We propose a new method to analyze light transport in homogeneous scattering media. The incident light undergoes multiple bounces in translucent objects, and produces a complex li...

Catadioptric Projectors
We present a catadioptric projector analogous to a catadioptric camera by combining a commodity digital projector with additional optical units. We show that, by using specially sh...
