Abstract

Lighting simulation and image synthesis for outdoor scenes is intractable due to the geometric and lighting complexity of such environment. In this paper we present an efficient framework to the problem of image synthesis for outdoor scene by combining the geometry-based and image-based rendering. With respect to the linearity of incident spectral power distribution and apparent reflectance, the receptor responses of an image under varying sun position and weather conditions can be calculated to generate the desired image. Our method is proved to be available and feasible for fixed scene and camera geometry.
