The goal of this book is to present the most advanced research
works in realistic computer generated images. It is made up of the
papers presented during a Eurographics workshop that has been held
in Rennes (France) on June 1990. Although realism in computer
graphics has existed for many years, we have considered that two
research directions can now clearly be identified. One makes use of
empirical methods to efficiently create images that look real. As
opposed to this approach, the other orientation makes use of
physics to produce images that are exact representations of the
real world (at the expense of additional processing time), hence
the term photosimulation which indeed was the subject of this book.
The objectives of this workshop were to assemble experts from
physics and computer graphics in order to contribute to the
introduction of physics-based approaches in the field of computer
generated images. The fact that this workshop was the first
entirely devoted to this topic was a bet and fortunately it turned
out that it was a success. The contents of this book is organized
in five chapters: Efficient Ray Tracing Meth ods, Theory of Global
Illumination Models, Photometric Algorithms, Form-Factor Cal
culations and Physics-Based Methods.
