A Full-Wave Reference Simulator for Computing Surface Reflectance

Computing light reflection from rough surfaces is an important topic in computer graphics. Reflection models developed based on geometric optics fail to capture wave effects such as diffraction and interference, while existing models based on physical opti ...

The Canopy Pavilion: A lightweight shading structure using a deployable auxetic linkage membrane

Mark Pauly, Dieter Dietz, Florin Isvoranu, Arthur François Blanc, Tian Chen, Etienne Bouleau

We present the Canopy Pavilion, a lightweight shading structure for a social gathering space. The shading surface is realized as a tensioned auxetic linkage membrane, composed of two double-curved anticlastic layers separated by a compression pole. The mem ...

Light Path Gradients for Forward and Inverse Rendering

Tizian Lucien Zeltner

Physically based rendering is a process for photorealistic digital image synthesis and one of the core problems in computer graphics. It involves simulating the light transport, i.e. the emission, propagation, and scattering of light through a virtual scen ...

Modeling specular transmission of complex fenestration systems with data-driven BSDFs

Jan Wienold

A Bidirectional Scattering Distribution Function (BSDF) describes how light from each incident direction is scattered (reflected and transmitted) by a simple or composite surface, such as a window shade. Compact, tabular BSDFs may be derived via interpolat ...

Slope-Space Integrals for Specular Next Event Estimation

Wenzel Alban Jakob, Tizian Lucien Zeltner, Guillaume Rémi Bruno Loubet

Monte Carlo light transport simulations often lack robustness in scenes containing specular or near-specular materials. Widely used uni- and bidirectional sampling strategies tend to find light paths involving such materials with insufficient probability, ...

Ultra-Broadband and Omnidirectional Perfect Absorber Based on Copper Nanowire/Carbon Nanotube Hierarchical Structure

Giulia Tagliabue, Fateme Kiani Shahvandi, Theodoros Tsoulos

Zero reflection and complete light absorption are required in a wide range of applications ranging from sensing devices to solar heaters and photoelectrodes. However, simultaneously satisfying the requirements of the broadband spectrum, omnidirectionality, ...

Impact of dynamic lighting control on light exposure, visual comfort and alertness in office users

Jean-Louis Scartezzini, Mirjam Münch, Ali Motamed, Marta Benedetti, Lenka Maierova

The lighting environment at indoor workplaces is important not only to provide vision and visual comfort, but also for light's direct influence on human physiology, cognitive performance and mood. The purpose of this ongoing study is to investigate the imp ...

Automated ‘Eye-sight’ Venetian blinds based on an embedded photometric device with real-time daylighting computing

Jean-Louis Scartezzini, Jérôme Henri Kämpf, Yujie Wu

Optimal shading control can improve occupants’ visual comfort and increase energy savings on artificial lighting and cooling loads during warm seasons. A highly integrated automated shading system is presented in this paper. Designed to regulate daylightin ...

Embedded Polarizing Filters to Separate Diffuse and Specular Reflection

Laurent Valentin Jospin, Adam James Scholefield, Gilles Baechler

Polarizing filters provide a powerful way to separate diffuse and specular reflection; however, traditional methods rely on several captures and require proper alignment of the filters. Recently, camera manufacturers have proposed to embed polarizing micro ...

Sampling the Multiple Facets of Light

Gilles Baechler

The theme of this thesis revolves around three important manifestations of light, namely its corpuscular, wave and electromagnetic nature. Our goal is to exploit these principles to analyze, design and build imaging modalities by developing new signal proc ...
