Session details: Shadows, translucency, and visibility

This paper describes an efficient algorithm to model the light attenuation due to a participating media with low albedo. Here, we consider the light attenuation along a ray, as well as the light attenuation emanating from a surface. The light ...

This paper introduces an accurate real-time soft shadow algorithm that uses sample based visibility. Initially, we present a GPU-based alias-free hard shadow map algorithm that typically requires only a single render pass from the light, in contrast to ...

Virtual real-time applications such as games and simulations frequently require rendering of large number of agents. Various GPU accelerated eye space culling and level of detail management techniques are being used to achieve efficient rendering of ...
