Member Enumeration Documentation

enum RetVal [inherited]

Informations about reflectance Enumerator: NONZERO_CONTRIB  color is set (including black) BAD_PARAMS  unable to compute reflectance NL_NEGATIVE  dot-product of normal, N, and light direction, L, is less than zero NV_NEGATIVE  dot-product of normal, N, and viewer direction, V, is less than zero NL_OR_NV_NEGATIVE  either N*L or N*V is less than zero ZERO_CONTRIB  no energy is reflected in given direction Definition at line 22 of file BRDF.h.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

DiffuseBRDF (  bool  isotropic  )  [inline]

Contructor Parameters: isotropic  determines whether this BRDF is isotropic (reflectance is independent of rotation around normal) Definition at line 29 of file DiffuseBRDF.h.

Member Function Documentation

virtual void _duplicate_attributes (  const BRDF &  src  )  [inline, protected, virtual]

Reimplemented from BRDF. Reimplemented in LambertianBRDF. Definition at line 18 of file DiffuseBRDF.h. References BRDF::_duplicate_attributes(). Referenced by LambertianBRDF::_duplicate_attributes().

_isIsotropic (  isotropic   )  [inline, inherited]

Definition at line 51 of file BRDF.h.

virtual double albedo (  const MatVisitor &  visitor, const Vector3 &  N, const Vector3 *  V )  const [pure virtual]

Albedo for importance sampling strategies. Parameters: visitor  visitor of material coefficients N  normalized normal vector V  normalized direction to viewer Returns: albedo Implements BRDF. Implemented in LambertianBRDF.

bool anisotropic (  void   )  const [inline, inherited]

Returns: true if BRDF is anisotropic (reflectance dependents on rotation around normal), false otherwise Definition at line 80 of file BRDF.h.

virtual BRDF* clone (   )  const [pure virtual]

Duplicates the BRDF Implements BRDF. Implemented in LambertianBRDF.

bool diffuse (  void   )  const [inline, inherited]

Returns: true if BRDF is diffuse, false otherwise Definition at line 61 of file BRDF.h.

virtual Vector2 dir2uv (  const MatVisitor &  visitor, const Vector3 &  N, const Vector3 &  D )  const [pure virtual]

Gets direction in global coords and returns its generating "random" numbers (i.e. the inverse function to importanceSample()) Parameters: visitor  visitor of material coefficients N  normalized normal vector D  normalized direction Returns: "random" numbers generating direction D; x item of returned vector corresponds to r1 of importanceSample() method, y item corresponds to r2 Implements BRDF. Implemented in LambertianBRDF.

virtual void importanceSample (  const MatVisitor &  visitor, const Vector3 &  D, double  r1, double  r2, Vector3 &  dir, double *  pPDFVal )  [pure virtual]

Point sampling interface - importance sampling. This method gets two random numbers and preffered direction of random sample and selects amd returns random direction. Energy contribution gained from such random directions should be laer devided by average spectral reflectance (e.g. visitor.avgDiffuse() or visitor.avgSpecular()) in order to account for the fact that the reflectance should have used different values for individual spectrums (e.g. RGB) Parameters: visitor  visitor of material coefficients D  normalized vector determining prefered direction of the sample r1  random number from the range [0,1) r2  random number from the range [0,1) dir  random direction selected by this method pPDFVal  corresponding PDF value Implements BRDF. Implemented in LambertianBRDF.

bool isotropic (  void   )  const [inline, inherited]

Returns: true if BRDF is isotropic (reflectance is independent of rotation around normal), false otherwise Definition at line 73 of file BRDF.h.

virtual RetVal reflectance (  const MatVisitor &  visitor, const Vector3 *  L, const Vector3 *  V, const Vector3 *  N, Vector3 &  color )  [pure virtual]

Computes and returns actual reflectance. Parameters: visitor  visitor of material coefficients L  normalized direction to light source V  normalized direction to viewer N  normalized normal vector color  computed reflected energy (color) Returns: additionnal informations about reflected energy Implements BRDF. Implemented in LambertianBRDF.

virtual RetVal reflectanceNL (  const MatVisitor &  visitor, const Vector3 *  L, const Vector3 *  V, const Vector3 *  N, double  NL, Vector3 &  color )  [pure virtual]

This variant speeds up the computation using given precomputed dot-products of N, V and L Parameters: visitor  visitor of material coefficients L  normalized direction to light source V  normalized direction to viewer N  normalized normal vector NV  precomputed dot-product of normal N and V NL  precomputed dot-product of normal N and L color  computed reflected energy (color) Returns: additionnal informations about reflected energy Implements BRDF. Implemented in LambertianBRDF.

bool specular (  void   )  const [inline, inherited]

Returns: true if BRDF is specular, false otherwise Definition at line 66 of file BRDF.h.
