Source src src Detector det det Definition of BRDF • Key point: BRDF is a differential quantity, so limit must exist
Source src src Detector det det Definition of BRDF • First attempt:
Source src src Detector det det Definition of BRDF • Should fr vary with src? No.
Source src src Detector det det Definition of BRDF • Should fr vary with det? Yes.
Source src src Detector det det Definition of BRDF • Thus,
Source src src Detector det det Definition of BRDF • What about surface area?fr must be independent of surface area dA
Source src src Detector det det Definition of BRDF dA
Measuring BRDFs • A full BRDF is 4-dimensional • Simpler measurements often useful • Start with the simplest, andget more complex
Measuring Reflectance 0º/45º Diffuse Measurement 45º/45º Specular Measurement
Integrating Spheres • Sphere with diffuse material on inside • Geometry ensures even illumination • More accurate measure ofdiffuse reflectance
Gloss Measurements • Some additional aspects of appearance can be captured with one, or a small number of measuements • Standardized for applications such as paint manufacturing • Example: “contrast gloss” is essentially ratio of specular to diffuse • “Sheen” is specular measurement at 85°
Gloss Measuements • “Haze” and “distinctness of image” are measurements of width of specular peak
BRDF Measurements • Next step up in complexity: measure BRDF in plane of incidence (1- or 2-D)
Gonioreflectometers • Three degrees of freedom spread among light source, detector, and/or sample
Gonioreflectometers • Three degrees of freedom spread among light source, detector, and/or sample
Gonioreflectometers • Can add fourth degree of freedom to measure anisotropic BRDFs
Issues in BRDF Measurement • Light source: angular size, brightness, stability, speckle • Detector: angular size, sensitivity, noise, resolution (if spatially varying) • Positioning: accuracy, drift, hysteresis • Acquisition time
Image-Based BRDF Measurement • Reduce acquisition time by obtaining larger (e.g. 2-D) slices of BRDF at once • Requires mapping of angles of light to camera pixels
Ward’s BRDF Measurement Setup • Collect reflected light with hemispherical (should be ellipsoidal) mirror [SIGGRAPH 92]
Ward’s BRDF Measurement Setup • Result: each image captures light at all exitant angles
Marschner’s Image-BasedBRDF Measurement • For uniform BRDF, capture 2-D slice corresponding to variations in normals
Marschner’s Image-BasedBRDF Measurement • Any object with known geometry
BRDF Measurement is Hard! • Result of fitting model to Ward’s measurements
