General Information

The aim of the project Treelumination is to enhance the realism and visual quality of applications that need to display trees and tree-like plants in a real-time setting. This is important because real-time photo-realistic illumination effects have not been used before for rendering trees in real-time rendering applications, although they are crucial for believable high-quality rendering. The effects that we are going to consider include shadows and self-shadowing, translucency of leaves, global illumination and high-dynamic range rendering.
