Figure 9: A vase modeled with 4860 triangles showing interreflection effects. Generating all displaced microtriangle would have resulted in 30,000,000 triangles.

Figure 10: A terrain dataset with 110,000 initial polygons shown without displacements on the left. Right, with $N_{\rm max}=3162$ and a procedural displacement map. Instantiating all the geometry would have resulted in more than 1,000,000,000,000 triangles.
