  • Lighting and Shading
    Chapter 8 Lighting and Shading When we think that we \see" an object in the real world, we are not actually seeing the object itself. Instead, we are seeing light either emitted from or reflected off of that object. The pattern of the light reaching our eyes allows us to reconstruct, in our minds, the form of the object that we are looking at. Consequently, in order to simulate this image formation process in a computer, we need to be able to model lights, materials and geometry. Lights provide a source of illumination, materials determine how light is reflected off of a surface made of this material, and geometry provides the shape of the surface. 47 48 CHAPTER 8. LIGHTING AND SHADING 8.1 Point and parallel lights In the real world, all lights have a finite size and shape, and a location in space. However, we will see later that modeling the surface area of the light in a lighting algorithm can be difficult. It turns out to be much easier, and generally quite effective, to model lights as either being geometric points or as being infinitely far away. A point light has a single location in 3D space, and radiates light equally in all directions. An infinite light is considered to be so far away that all of its light rays are parallel to each other. Thus, an infinite light has no position, but there is a fixed direction for all of its rays. Such a light is sometimes called a parallel light source. uL xL cL cL Point Light Parallel Light A point light is specified by its position xL, and a parallel light is specified by its light direction vector uL.

  • Two-Color Double-Cloth Development in Alignment with Subtractive CMYK Color Theory by Deploying Digital Technology
    Volume 11, Issue 2, 2020 Two-color Double-cloth Development in Alignment with Subtractive CMYK Color Theory by Deploying Digital Technology Ken Ri Kim, Lecturer, Loughborough University Trence Kavanagh, Professor, Loughborough University, United Kingdom ABSTRACT This study aims to introduce new aesthetic values of modern double-cloth by resolving the current restriction in woven textile coloration. Previously, realizing pictorial images on both sides of a fabric was experimented with two weft yarns and further possibility was suggested to extend an applicable number of weft yarns for which a prototype of two-color double-cloth was tested and fabricated by employing four weft yarns. In this study, therefore, reproduction of highly complicated patterns in a two-color shading effect is aimed to further develop the current double- cloth design capability. The core principle lies on weave structure design to interweave two sets of warps and wefts into separate layers whilst two distinctive images are designed in alignment with CMYK color theory to enlarge a feasible weave color scope by using the subtractive primary yarn colors. Details of digital weave pattern design and weave structure development are explained based on empirical experiment results. Keywords: Two-color double-cloth, digital weave pattern design, subtractive color theory, double- cloth weave structure, new color expression Introduction number of color resources in weft is also Digital technology employed in modern constrained (Watson & Grosicki, 1997). As a weaving greatly enhanced production result, the color accuracy level to be able to efficiency and convenience (Ishida, 1994).

  • Height and Gradient from Shading
    Massachusetts Institute of Technology The Artificial Intelligence Laboratory A.I. Memo No. 1105A May 1989 Height and Gradient from Shading Berthold K.P. Horn Abstract: The method described here for recovering the shape of a surface from a shaded image can deal with complex, wrinkled surfaces. Integrability can be enforced easily because both surface height and gradient are represented (A gra- dient field is integrable if it is the gradient of some surface height function). The robustness of the method stems in part from linearization of the reflectance map about the current estimate of the surface orientation at each picture cell (The reflectance map gives the dependence of scene radiance on surface orientation). The new scheme can find an exact solution of a given shape-from-shading prob- lem even though a regularizing term is included. The reason is that the penalty term is needed only to stabilize the iterative scheme when it is far from the correct solution; it can be turned off as the solution is approached. This is a reflection of the fact that shape-from-shading problems are not ill-posed when boundary conditions are available, or when the image contains singular points. This paper includes a review of previous work on shape from shading and photoclinometry. Novel features of the new scheme are introduced one at a time to make it easier to see what each contributes. Included is a discussion of im- plementation details that are important if exact algebraic solutions of synthetic shape-from-shading problems are to be obtained. The hope is that better perfor- mance on synthetic data will lead to better performance on real data.

  • Binary Shading Using Appearance and Geometry
    Authors Draft - Final version published in COMPUTER GRAPHICS forum Binary Shading using Appearance and Geometry Bert Buchholz+ Tamy Boubekeur+ Doug DeCarlo†;∗ Marc Alexa∗ + Telecom ParisTech - CNRS LTCI ∗ TU Berlin † Rutgers University Abstract In the style of binary shading, shape and illumination are depicted using two colors, typically black and white, that form coherent lines and regions in the image. We formulate the problem of assigning colors in the rendered image as an energy minimization, computed using graph cut on the image grid. The terms of this energy come from two sources: appearance (shading) and geometry (depth and curvature). Our contributions are in the use of geometric information in determining colors, and how this information is incorporated into a graph cut approach. This optimization yields boundaries between black and white regions that tend towards being shorter and to run along geometric features like creases. We show a range of results, and demonstrate that this approach produces more coherent images than simpler approaches that make local decisions when assigning colors, or that do not use geometry. Categories and Subject Descriptors (according to ACM CCS): I.3.3 [Computer Graphics]: Picture/Image Generation; I.3.7 [Computer Graphics]: Three-Dimensional Graphics and Realism: Color, shading, shadowing, and texture back rendering of geometric features. As expected, large black or white regions in the drawing correspond to low and high levels of illumination, respectively. Furthermore, high local 1.

  • YEAR 1: Elements of Art: Colour
    YEAR 1: Elements of Art: Colour Contents Include: Primary and Secondary Colours Warm and Cool Colours A Study of a Famous Artist Please Note: The activities included in this pack are suggestions only. Teachers should adapt the lessons to ensure they are pitched correctly for their pupils. For an outline of the content included in Year 1 Visual Arts, see the Visual Arts Sequence. Lesson 1: Introduction to Colour This lesson should be used to establish what the children know about colour. Children will learn the three primary colours (yellow, red and blue) and will begin to explore colour mixing. By the end of this lesson, children should be able to name the three primary colours and should have some ideas about how to mix primary colours to make various secondary colours, for example, mixing red and yellow to make orange. The colours red, yellow and blue are called primary colours in art because they cannot be made by mixing together any other colours. When two primary colours are mixed together, the colour created is called a secondary colour. In art, some colours can be used to create feelings of warmth (e.g. red, yellow or orange) or feelings of coldness (blue, green or grey). The works of art included in What Your Year 1 Child Needs to Know can be used to discuss this. See page 155-159 of What your Year 1 Child Needs to Know Learning Objective Core Knowledge Activities for Learning Related Assessment Questions Vocabulary Give children a blank piece of paper and a range of What can you tell me To show what I know To know that the primary coloured paints.
