In this section of the course notes, we will go over the fundamentals behind physically based
shading models, starting with a qualitative description of the underlying physics, followed by …

Following our success with physically based hair shading on Tangled [27], we began
considering physically based shading models for a broader range of materials. With the …

This book covers real-time shading systems, their design and how they work. Procedural
shading, long valued for off-line rendering and production animation is now possible on …

The world around us is filled with subtle lighting effects, but until recently it was not possible
to duplicate these real-world effects in computer games because of the limits of consumer …

About a year ago, we decided to invest some time in improving our shading model and
embrace a more physically based material workflow. This was driven partly by a desire to …

While traditional graphics techniques provide for the realistic display of three-dimensional
objects, these methods often lack the flexibility to emulate expressive effects found in the …

We present a novel method for producing convincing pictures of shaded objects based
entirely on 2D image operations. This approach, which we call image-based shading …

In this article we describe and investigate tiled shading. The tiled techniques, though simple,
enable substantial improvements to both deferred and forward shading. Tiled Shading has …
