Abstract:
Prerequisites
Familiarity with basic concepts of scene modeling and rendering is required. A brief overview of the two main background topics – Monte Carlo integration and radiative transport – is provided.
Level
Advanced
Intended Audience
This course should be of interest to a wide spectrum of SIGGRAPH attendees, including students, technical directors, rendering enthusiasts, and researchers interested in physically based rendering of scenes with participating media.
Description
This course surveys methods that utilize Monte Carlo integration to simulate light transport in scenes with participating media. The course is an extension of a Eurographics 2018 state-of-the-art report and expands on the details of individual techniques, acceleration data structures, and other insights relevant to CG practitioners.
