All-Frequency Precomputed Radiance Transfer for Glossy Objects
We introduce a method based on precomputed radiance transfer (PRT) that allows interactive rendering of glossy surfaces and includes shadowing effects from dynamic, “all-frequen...

A Spectral-particle hybrid method for rendering falling snow
Falling snow has the visual property that it is simultaneously a set of discrete moving particles as well as a dynamic texture. To capture the dynamic texture properties of fallin...

Rendering Procedural Terrain by Geometry Image Warping
We describe an approach for rendering large terrains in real-time. A digital elevation map defines the rough shape of the terrain. During rendering, procedural geometric and text...

An Irradiance Atlas for Global Illumination in Complex Production Scenes
We introduce a tiled 3D MIP map representation of global illumination data. The representation is an adaptive, sparse octree with a “brick” at each octree node; each brick con...
