Like variance shadow maps, the recently proposed moment shadow maps can be filtered
directly but they provide a substantially higher quality. We combine them with earlier …

Building upon previous works, we transfer the recently proposed moment shadow mapping
to three new applications. Like variance shadow maps and convolution shadow maps …

Crepuscular rays form when light encounters an optically thick or opaque medium which
masks out portions of the visible scene. Real-time applications commonly estimate this …

The ray marching method has become the most attractive method to provide realism in
rendering the effects of light scattering in the participating media of numerous applications …

Volumetric shadows often increase the realism of rendered scenes in computer graphics.
Typical volumetric shadows techniques do not provide a smooth transition effect in real-time …

Rendering atmospheric phenomena is known to have its basis in the fields of atmospheric
optics and meteorology and is increasingly used in games and movies. Although many …

This research addresses a new approach for rendering colored light shafts using light
texture of virtual environments in real time. Typically, most of the techniques have focused …
