Conservation of Shadows

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 describes an efficient algorithm to model the light attenuation due to a participating media with low albedo. The light attenuation is modeled using splatting volume renderer for both the viewer and the light source. During the rendering, a ...

Building upon previous works, we transfer the recently proposed moment shadow mapping to three new applications. Like variance shadow maps and convolution shadow maps, moment shadow maps can be filtered directly. Classically, this is used to filter hard ...
