Designing software for mobile devices poses new challenges not seen in desktop computer environments. Screen size, performance and inputs, are just a few areas where they significantly differ. Although, intriguingly the gap between them is narrowing. Devices are now able to do things previously only restricted to PCs. The graphics chip integrated with high-end devices of today and tomorrow has capabilities worth exploring. With more power and advanced shader support, techniques such as image based lighting becomes worth exploring. To solve the problem described in this thesis I built a framework for image processing. This framework is further described indirectly throughout the report and is available upon request. The framework is never the focus of the report since any framework should suffice and the developed framework should not hinder the reader’s own experimentations. 1.1 Purpose The purpose of this thesis is to see whether image based lighting (IBL) and image based rendering (IBR) is feasible with a mobile phone, as well as explore which applications it would suit for. Also, examining if it can be combined with high dynamic range imaging (HDRI) to enhance the user experience. Both IBL/IBR and HDRI might be new terms for the reader; if so I encourage you to read 2.2 for a deeper understanding. 1.2 Hypothesis The hypothesis assumed: The techniques presented will provide users benefits in terms of aesthetics and usability. Which would have to be evaluated through user studies. 3 1.3 Conditions 1. The technique should work with Mobile devices and the special limitations they present. 2. Aimed towards high-end mobile devices. 3. Use TATs program suite in the development; Cascades, Motion Lab. 4. Make use of multi-modal input. 1.4 Assumptions 1. All resolutions i.e.. A×B have the unit pixels. Chapter 2 Background The following sections contains what is believed to be good background knowl- edge before reading about the proposed methods. For this reason they are not mandatory for the understanding of the developed techniques although still rec- ommended reading. They also contain references which can broaden the reader’s knowledge in these areas. 2.1 Utah Teapot Throughout this report the model known as the Utah teapot is used, see Figure 2.1. This is an object which probably would not be used in any UI, although it has some features which makes it usable in a report such as this. The main reason being that the shape of the teapot makes it show the effects on a fairly complex object, thus depicting the effects on different surface types. This will show strengths and weaknesses of the techniques presented which might not have shown on a simpler object i.e. cube or sphere. Figure 2.1. Illustration of Utah teapot with a checkerboard texture 5 2.2 Image Based Lighting and High Dynamic Range Imaging Image based lighting involves techniques to light artificial objects/environments with mapped light data. This should be put in contrast with traditional rendering where the lighting is calculated from a scene description. IBL is a technique widely used within the film and gaming industry, since it can be used with physically correct lighting data, and it is decoupled from scene complexity(polygons and light-sources). There is also the possibility to precalculate the lighting information. IBL is often combined with HDRI because captured real lighting data is of HDR-type in most cases. This means that conventional file-formats do not have enough resolution to fully store the intensity spectrum accurately. To capture the wide range of lighting data HDR-formats are required. There are several formats to choose from, for more details, see [8, Page 89]. 2.2.1 In a Mobile Context This is a new area of application for IBL. Being a standard technique for games and movies the graphical performance of mobile devices has to recently not really been sufficient. But with more devices having OpenGL ES 2.X support, and graphics chip performance advancements it is now possible to find applications for IBL on a mobile device. Some graphics chips for mobile devices also support HDR-data. 2.3 Environment Mapping 2.3.1 Common Types of Environment Mappings Since mapped lighting data needs to be mapped to objects, techniques which do so are important to look at. In this section some of the most common are presented. • Longitude-Latitude mapping Figure 2.2. Example of a longitude-latitude map Developed for mapping the empyrean to a 2D-surface. Each star’s location is described with two angles instead of three spatial coordinates. These angles are denoted as elevation and azimuth. • Box/Cube Mapping Figure 2.3. Example of a box map This method divides the environment up in the six squared faces of an imag- ined cube enclosing the observer. Lookup with this mapping is fast and efficient. But it requires a lot of memory and creating the texture in this context is computationally heavy. • Spherical Mapping Figure 2.4. Example of a sphere-map This technique is often mentioned in combination with IBL, since capturing light data often is done using a mirror sphere. If that is the case no remapping needs to be done, only cropping. The mirror sphere is centered in the texture and the diameter is normalized to one. 2.3.2 Reflection Mapping By many considered the most common type of mapping and one of the oldest within computer graphics. The technique works by using the reflection-vector to lookup texture(or light)-data. This technique in combination with an environment map creates the illusion of a mirror-like surface as shown below in Figure 2.5. Also, notice when looking at Figures 2.5, 2.6 and 2.8 distortions created due to under-sampling, more on this in the discussion. Figure 2.5. Left to right images rendered with a DCM of 256×128, 64×32, 32×16 and 16×8. 2.3.3 DCM - Diffuse Convolution Map DCM is an extension of environment mapping, with which diffuse lighting within a scene can is simulated. The DCM is calculated as a convolution of the environment map and taking Phong’s BRDF into account. This algorithm is computationally complex, and results in a blurry image. A nice feature is that the image has no ap- parent seams. Due to the complexity of the algorithm it is normally precalculated before use, although I will show how to approximate it in real-time. An example of a DCM can be seen in Figure 2.7. The interpretation of this is that DCM is a low-pass filter, and that knowledge we can use to our advan- tage. The DCM can be under-sampled substantially and a believable result is still obtained.

    chapter07.qxd 2/6/2003 3:49 PM Page 169 Chapter 7 Environment Mapping Techniques This chapter explains environment mapping and presents several applications of the technique. The chapter has the following four sections: • “Environment Mapping” introduces the technique and explains its key assump- tions and limitations. • “Reflective Environment Mapping” explains the physics of reflection and how to simulate reflective materials with environment mapping. • “Refractive Environment Mapping” describes Snell’s Law and shows how to use environment maps to implement an effect that approximates refraction. • “The Fresnel Effect and Chromatic Dispersion” combines reflection, refraction, the Fresnel effect, and the chromatic properties of light to produce a more complex effect called chromatic dispersion. 7.1 Environment Mapping The preceding chapters showed some basic shading techniques. By now, you know how to light, transform, texture, and animate objects with Cg. However, your render- ings are probably not quite what you envisioned. The next few chapters describe a few simple techniques that can dramatically improve your images. This chapter presents several techniques based on environment mapping. Environment mapping simulates an object reflecting its surroundings. In its simplest form, environ- ment mapping gives rendered objects a chrome-like appearance. 169 7.1 Environment Mapping chapter07.qxd 2/6/2003 3:49 PM Page 170 Environment mapping assumes that an object’s environment (that is, everything sur- rounding it) is infinitely distant from the object and, therefore, can be encoded in an omnidirectional image known as an environment map. 7.1.1 Cube Map Textures All recent GPUs support a type of texture known as a cube map.

  • Rendering Mirror Surfaces Ray Tracing Environment Mapping (Reflection
    COMP 557 18 - environment mapping Mar. 12, 2015 Rendering mirror surfaces The next texture mapping method assumes we have a mirror surface, or at least a reflectance function that contains a mirror component. Examples might be a car window or hood, a puddle on the ground, or highly polished metal or ceramic. The intensity of light reflected off each surface point towards the camera depends on what is visible from the surface in the \mirror direction." We write the formula for mirror reflection r = 2n(n · v) − v where v is the direction to the viewer and r is the direction of the incoming ray. This is essentially the same relationship that we saw in lecture 12 for two rays related by a mirror reflection, except there we had l instead of r for the direction of the incident ray. (We could have used l again here, but I chose not to because I want to emphasize that we are not considering a light source direction. Rather we are considering anything that can be seen in that mirror reflection direction.) Note that since the mirror surface is a finite distance away, the v vector will typically vary along the surface regardless of whether the normal n varies. Since both the surface normal and v can vary along the surface, the reflection vector r vector typically varies along the surface as well. Ray tracing To correctly render the image seen \in the mirror," we would need to cast a ray into the scene from the surface point and in direction r.
