Illumination sensitive dynamic virtual sets

Virtual point lights VPLs are well established for real-time global illumination. However, this method suffers from spiky artifacts and flickering caused by singularities of VPLs, highly glossy materials, high-frequency textures, and discontinuous ...

In this paper we present a novel method for plausible real-time rendering of indirect illumination effects for diffuse and non-diffuse surfaces. The scene geometry causing indirect illumination is captured by an extended shadow map, as proposed in ...

We present an algorithm that enables real-time dynamic shading in direct volume rendering using general lighting, including directional lights, point lights, and environment maps. Real-time performance is achieved by encoding local and global volumetric ...
