27. CGVR Graphics Lab @ Korea University cgvr.korea.ac.kr 27 Reflections Reflection and Shadows Generated by lighting equation Can increase realism Used by viewer as a cues to determine spatial relationships between objects

28. CGVR Graphics Lab @ Korea University cgvr.korea.ac.kr 28 Reflections Reflector and Reflected Geometry Reflector: a reflecting surface Reflected Geometry: Geometry reflected in the reflector Ray Tracing Solution in which the reflection ray is emitted from a reflector and recursively traced Computationally intensive for real-time system Need real-time solution

29. CGVR Graphics Lab @ Korea University cgvr.korea.ac.kr 29 Reflections – Planar Reflections Planar Reflection Reflection off a flat surface - Mirror reflection Execute more rapidly than general reflection Follows the law of reflection  Can be Implemented by Copy & Transforming

30. CGVR Graphics Lab @ Korea University cgvr.korea.ac.kr 30 Reflections – Planar Reflections Reflection Matrix F = R (n, (0,1,0))T(-p) M = F -1 S(1,-1,1) F

31. CGVR Graphics Lab @ Korea University cgvr.korea.ac.kr 31 Reflections – Planar Reflections Reflectivity factor Applied by changing transparency

32. CGVR Graphics Lab @ Korea University cgvr.korea.ac.kr 32 Reflections – Planar Reflections Stencil Buffer Support selective Planar Reflections

33. CGVR Graphics Lab @ Korea University cgvr.korea.ac.kr 33 Reflections – Planar Reflections Problem Area Culling  Turn off face culling or front face culling Clipping  Clipping Plane Another Technique Reflection image can be treated as a texture

34. CGVR Graphics Lab @ Korea University cgvr.korea.ac.kr 34 Glossy Effects Object face to black as the distance from the reflector increase Distance calculation is needed

35. CGVR Graphics Lab @ Korea University cgvr.korea.ac.kr 35 Reflections from Curved Reflector Traditional Solution Ray-Tracing Not good for real-time system Selective Trace Ray Trace rays only from the reflector’s vertices into environment Significantly reduce computation time but still suffer from Gouraud-Shading artifacts
