ABSTRACT
Shadow Mapping is a reliable technique to produce shadows in a scene in real time. This technique has been mostly applied to directional lights and only a few methods have used it for omnidirectional lighting [Brabec et al. 2002]. These methods need more than one full render pass to compute the whole shadow mapping. In this work we propose an approach to achieves an omnidirectional shadow map in a single pass.

Soft irregular shadow mapping: fast, high-quality, and robust soft shadows
I3D '09: Proceedings of the 2009 symposium on Interactive 3D graphics and gamesWe introduce a straightforward, robust, and efficient algorithm for rendering high-quality soft shadows in dynamic scenes. Each frame, points in the scene visible from the eye are inserted into a spatial acceleration structure. Shadow umbrae are ...
Stochastic Soft Shadow Mapping
In this paper, we extend the concept of pre-filtered shadow mapping to stochastic rasterization, enabling real-time rendering of soft shadows from planar area lights. Most existing soft shadow mapping methods lose important visibility information by ...
Shadow caster culling for efficient shadow mapping
I3D '11: Symposium on Interactive 3D Graphics and GamesWe propose a novel method for efficient construction of shadow maps by culling shadow casters which do not contribute to visible shadows. The method uses a mask of potential shadow receivers to cull shadow casters using a hierarchical occlusion culling ...
