A Microfacet-based BRDF Generator

SIGGRAPH 00


Authors


Abstract

A method is presented that takes a as input a 2D microfacet orientation distribution and produces a 4D bidirectional reflectrance distribution function. This method differs from previous microfacet-based BRDF models in that it uses a simple shadowing term which allows it to handle very general microfacet distributions. The generator is shown on a veriety of material types.
