A Radiative Transfer Framework for Rendering Materials with Anisotropic Structure

Wenzel Alban Jakob

The radiative transfer framework that underlies all current rendering of volumes is limited to scattering media whose properties are invariant to rotation. Many systems allow for "anisotropic scattering," in the sense that scattered intensity depends on th ...

Dark-field optical coherence microscopy

Theo Lasser, Christophe Pache, Martin Villiger

Dark-field illumination is known to enhance scattering contrast in optical microscopy. We combined this concept with Fourier domain optical coherence microscopy (OCM). The detection and illumination paths are decoupled, and only the scattered light origina ...

Dark-field optical coherence microscopy

Theo Lasser, Christophe Pache, Martin Villiger

Many solutions have been proposed to produce phase quantitative images of biological cell samples. Among these, Spectral Domain Phase Microscopy combines the fast imaging speed and high sensitivity of Optical Coherence Microscopy (OCM) in the Fourier domai ...

Specularities as an information source in the presence of texture

Pascal Lagger

The appearance of real world objects is the result of the combination of their own texture and the light rays striking them before reaching our eyes, or our camera. This appearance therefore brings very rich information about the objects shapes, materials, ...

Retrieving multiple light sources in the presence of specular reflections and texture

Pascal Fua, Pascal Lagger

Recovering multiple point light sources from a sparse set of photographs in which objects of unknown texture can move is challenging. This is because both diffuse and specular reflections appear to slide across surfaces, which is a well known physical fact ...

3D pose refinement from reflections

Pascal Fua, Mathieu Salzmann, Vincent Lepetit, Pascal Lagger

We demonstrate how to exploit reflections for accurate registration of shiny objects: The lighting environment can be retrieved from the reflections under a distant illumination assumption. Since it remains unchanged when the camera or the object of intere ...

Kubelka-Munk model for imperfectly diffuse light distribution in paper

Roger Hersch, Lin Yang

Perfectly diffuse light is a fundamental assumption in the Kubelka-Munk (KM) modeL This assumption is, however seldom fulfilled by real media. In this work, we build a bridge between a weakly absorbing medium with an imperfectly diffuse light distribution ...

Tone Mapping For High Dynamic Range Displays

Sabine Süsstrunk, Laurence Meylan

We address the problem of re-rendering images to high dynamic range (HDR) displays, which were originally tone-mapped to standard displays. As these new HDR displays have a much larger dynamic range than standard displays, an image rendered to standard mon ...

Étude des fondements physiques possibles des concepts numériques utilisés dans les méthodes d'acoustique géométrique

Thomas Guignard

The subject of the work presented here is the study of the acoustical ray method, which aims at describing a pressure field by an analogy with light rays. The concept of a wave is therefore replaced by the concept of "acoustical rays", whose paths through ...

The Reproduction of Specular Highlights on High Dynamic Range Displays

Sabine Süsstrunk, Laurence Meylan

Recent advances in the design of high dynamic range (HDR) monitors enable the display of images having a large dynamic range, close to that encountered in the real world. As their usage will increase, we will be confronted with the problem of rerendering i ...
