Abstract:
Glare effect is widely used as a special effect in computer graphics for entertainment and games. Our goal is to extend the application of glare generation to more practical, simulation-oriented areas like lighting evaluation. We propose a new method of glare generation which takes into account real measured data sets including light source intensity with its spectral power distribution, the silhouette of the objects causing glare, and the color matching function. The method is based on our previous work [Kakimoto et al. 2004] and is extended for use with high dynamic range light sources containing a series of light wavelengths.
