  2. Bidirectional scattering distribution function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bidirectional_scattering...

    Some tend to use the term BSDF simply as a category name covering the whole family of BxDF functions. The term BSDF is sometimes used in a slightly different context, for the function describing the amount of the scatter (not scattered light), simply as a function of the incident light angle. An example to illustrate this context: for perfectly ...

  3. Bidirectional reflectance distribution function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bidirectional_reflectance...

    Diagram showing vectors used to define the BRDF. All vectors are unit length. points toward the light source. points toward the viewer (camera). is the surface normal.. The bidirectional reflectance distribution function (BRDF), symbol (,), is a function of four real variables that defines how light from a source is reflected off an opaque surface. It is employed in the optics of real-world ...

  4. Glaze (painting technique) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glaze_(painting_technique)

    Often, because a paint is too opaque, painters will add a medium like linseed oil or alkyd to the paint to make them more transparent and pliable for the purposes of glazing. While these media are usually liquids, there are solid and semi-solid media used in the making of paints as well.

  5. Bidirectional texture function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bidirectional_texture_function

    BSDF == BRDF + BTDF, a 4+1 dimensional function of the scattering distribution from a single point/pixel/vertex. Columbia Utrecht Reflectance and Texture Database; BTF Database Bonn and Measurement Lab; CVPR 2010 BTF Modeling Tutorial; BTFbase - BTF compression based on a multi-level vector quantization (free BTF shader)

  6. Paint protection film - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paint_protection_film

    Paint protection film (PPF, also called clear bra, clear film or clear paint film) is a thermoplastic urethane often self-healing film applied to painted surfaces of a new or used car in order to protect the paint from stone chips, bug splatters, and minor abrasions. This film is also used on airplanes, RVs, cell phones, electronics, screens ...

  7. Rendering equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rendering_equation

    The rendering equation describes the total amount of light emitted from a point x along a particular viewing direction, given a function for incoming light and a BRDF.. In computer graphics, the rendering equation is an integral equation in which the equilibrium radiance leaving a point is given as the sum of emitted plus reflected radiance under a geometrical optics approximation.

  8. Surfactants in paint - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Surfactants_in_paint

    The solvent also modifies the curing rate and viscosity of the paint in its liquid state. There are two types of paint: solvent-borne and water-borne paints. Solvent-borne paints use organic solvents as the primary vehicle carrying the solid components in a paint formulation, whereas water-borne paints use water as the continuous medium.

  9. Transparency (graphic) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transparency_(graphic)

    GIF animation of an Apollonian sphere packing with transparent background. Transparency in computer graphics is possible in a number of file formats.The term "transparency" is used in various ways by different people, but at its simplest there is "full transparency" i.e. something that is completely invisible.
