Bi-directional Reflectance Functions (BRDF) Reflections • Ambient – light uniformly incident from the environment • Diffuse – light scattered equally in all directions • Ambient and Diffuse – color of material plays a part • Specular – highlights connected with mirrorness • Specular – mostly color of light 1

  2. BRDF BRDF Geometry • Bi-directional Reflectance Function = φ θ φ θ BRDF f ( , , , ) r i i r r At a given point, gives relative reflected illumination in any direction with respect to incoming illumination coming from any direction; Note: The θ ’s are elevation, ϕ ’s are measured about the surface normal. The i ’s refer to the incident ray; the r ’s to the reflected ray. BRDF BRDF • Can return any positive value. • Simplifying Assumptions wrt the BRDF • Generally wavelength specific. – Light enters and leaves from the same point. • Not necessarily true BRDF = φ θ φ θ λ • Subsurface scattering f ( , , , , ) • Skin, marble r i i r r – Light of a given wavelength will only reflect back light of that same wavelength • Not necessarily true • Light Interference • Oily patches, peacock feathers Illumination Models Illumination Modeling • Four approaches • Illumination model - function or algorithm – Simplistic used to describe the reflective • Based on physics, abiet with many assumptions characteristics of a given surface. – Heuristic • The kludge! • Revise to… • Usually simple, yet not physically based – function or algorithm used in approximating the – Simulation BRDF. • Employ physical model • More complex than heuristic, but more accurate – Empirical • Use measured samples 2
