1. 1 Chapter 5: Sources, Shadows, Shading Light source: Anything emits light that is internally generated Exitance: The internally generated power per unit area around a point

2. 2 The geometry (e.g., point, line, area) of the source has profound effects on the distribution of light around the source.

9. 9 5.2.3 Line Sources (e.g., fluorescent light bulb) -- Modeled as a thin cylinder with diameter (2) The radiosity of patches changes as the reciprocal of distance to the source rather than the square of the distance (1) The length of the source does not change, but the width does as Remarks:
