Rendering

This module delves deeper into the concepts of image synthesis and focuses on the physically accurate and highly efficient generation of photorealistic images. The main areas of focus are:

  • Physically based rendering
  • complex material models and BRDFs
  • global illumination, Monte Carlo methods
  • image-based rendering
  • point-based rendering
