radiosity

Noun

Meaning

radiosity (countable and uncountable, plural radiosities)

(computer graphics) A three-dimensional rendering system that simulates all reflections from objects in the scene.

Examples

Another simulation uses illumination plotted from a radiosity algorithm, or a combination of these two. Source: Internet

Another common method for solving the radiosity equation is "shooting radiosity," which iteratively solves the radiosity equation by "shooting" light from the patch with the most error at each step. Source: Internet

Because of this, radiosity is a prime component of leading real-time rendering methods, and has been used from beginning-to-end to create a large number of well-known recent feature-length animated 3D-cartoon films. Source: Internet

Basic radiosity also has trouble resolving sudden changes in visibility (e.g. hard-edged shadows) because coarse, regular discretization into piecewise constant elements corresponds to a low-pass box filter of the spatial domain. Source: Internet

Calculation of Radiosity rather than surface temperatures is a key aspect of the radiosity method that permits linear matrix methods to be applied to the problem. Source: Internet

However, when advanced radiosity estimation is coupled with a high quality ray tracing algorithm, images may exhibit convincing realism, particularly for indoor scenes. Source: Internet
