  2. Path tracing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Path_tracing

    An image rendered using path tracing, demonstrating notable features of the technique. Path tracing is a rendering algorithm in computer graphics that simulates how light interacts with objects, voxels, and participating media to generate realistic (physically plausible) images.

  3. Mineral absorption - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mineral_absorption

    In plants and animals, mineral absorption, also called mineral uptake is the way in which minerals enter the cellular material, typically following the same pathway as water. In plants, the entrance portal for mineral uptake is usually through the roots. Some mineral ions diffuse in-between the cells. In contrast to water, some minerals are ...

  4. Computer graphics lighting - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Computer_graphics_lighting

    Computer graphics lighting is the collection of techniques used to simulate light in computer graphics scenes. While lighting techniques offer flexibility in the level of detail and functionality available, they also operate at different levels of computational demand and complexity. Graphics artists can choose from a variety of light sources ...

  5. Physically based rendering - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Physically_based_rendering

    Physically based rendering (PBR) is a computer graphics approach that seeks to render images in a way that models the lights and surfaces with optics in the real world. It is often referred to as "Physically Based Lighting" or "Physically Based Shading". Many PBR pipelines aim to achieve photorealism.

  6. Phong reflection model - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phong_reflection_model

    The Phong reflection model was developed by Bui Tuong Phong at the University of Utah, who published it in his 1975 Ph.D. dissertation. [1] [2] It was published in conjunction with a method for interpolating the calculation for each individual pixel that is rasterized from a polygonal surface model; the interpolation technique is known as Phong shading, even when it is used with a reflection ...

  7. Phosphorescence - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phosphorescence

    Stokes formed the term from a combination of fluorspar and opalescence (preferring to use a mineral instead of a solution), albeit it was later discovered that fluorspar glows due to phosphorescence. [9] There was much confusion between the meanings of these terms throughout the late nineteenth to mid-twentieth centuries.

  9. Lightmap - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lightmap

    The resolution is the area, in pixels, available for storing one or more surface's lightmaps. The number of individual surfaces that can fit on a lightmap is determined by the scale. Lower scale values mean higher quality and more space taken on a lightmap. Higher scale values mean lower quality and less space taken.
