A practical analytic single scattering model for real time rendering
SIGGRAPH '05: ACM SIGGRAPH 2005 Papers

We consider real-time rendering of scenes in participating media, capturing the effects of light scattering in fog, mist and haze. While a number of sophisticated approaches based on Monte Carlo and finite element simulation have been developed, those ...
A fast relighting engine for interactive cinematic lighting design
SIGGRAPH '00: Proceedings of the 27th annual conference on Computer graphics and interactive techniques

We present new techniques for interactive cinematic lighting design of complex scenes that use procedural shaders. Deep-framebuffers are used to store the geometric and optical information of the visible surfaces of an image. The geometric information ...
A practical analytic model for the radiosity of translucent scenes
I3D '13: Proceedings of the ACM SIGGRAPH Symposium on Interactive 3D Graphics and Games

Light propagation in scenes with translucent objects is hard to model efficiently for interactive applications. The inter-reflections between objects and their environments and the subsurface scattering through the materials intertwine to produce visual ...
