Spherical Harmonics for view-dependent effects in research of learned radiance fields (NeRF, 3D Gaussian Splatting)

In research on making the rendering of learned radiance fields (e.g., neural radiance fields) faster, many approaches use Spherical Harmonics (SH) to approximate view-dependent color (e.g. baking SH ...

Questions about equi-angular sampling

Equiangular sampling is a sampling method for point (sphere) emitter in scattering medium. While it claims to be very efficient when dealing with point (sphere) emitter in scattering medium (see this ...

Measure for volumetric rendering equation

Recently I've been digging deeper into the volumetric rendering (volumetric path tracing, to be specific). I already know that for surface rendering, there are two commonly used measures (reference ...

How to properly use scattering coefficient during volumetric path tracing?

The increased radiance during sampling is known by: $$ L_s = L_e + \sigma_s \int p(w, w')f_p(w, w')dw' $$ The latter part, which accounts for in-scattering radiance bears a $\sigma_s$ in it. The ...

Term confusion about volume scattering

We have two different terms, for example, let's talk about scattering only. Scattering coefficient Scattering cross-section These two terms are supposed to have different physical meaning. I read it ...

How to compute discrete partial derivatives in 3D

I'm supposed to compute partial derivatives for 3D volume rendering (in ray tracing). I'm bad at math and so I can't understand what $f$ is in my case. In reviewing examples, I'm seeing the $f$ ...

How to render and store a color gradient in a ramp texture for 16bit dataset?

I'm working on a scientific visualization project and need to create a transfer function widget. The volume data is either in range 0-255 or it can be 16 bit i.e. <...

What can be reduce in peripheral circle and increase in foveated cirle?

Foveated rendering, is definitely one of the newest fields of real-time graphics rendering. The main goal of foveated rendering is reducing rendering cost to increase frame-rate without perception ...

How to visualize density data as volume using OpenGL?

I have a CT scan of a portion of a human body, with each point describing density. The data file provides X, Y, Z, and density values. I want to know how to visualize this data, using OpenGL or a ...

Euclideon Unlimited Details Voxel Engine Architecture

As I understand Euclideon haven't just rendered voxels for these infamous demos, since the amount of geometry is still too large for the 2010 PC with software raytracer and the model taking whole HDD ...
