CIE x048-OP57 – THE DIFFUSENESS OF ILLUMINATION SUITABLE FOR REPRODUCING OBJECT SURFACE APPEARANCE USING COMPUTER GRAPHICS

The appearance of an object depends on its material, shape, and lighting. In particular, the diffuseness of the illumination has a significant effect on the appearance of material and surface texture. We investigated a diffuseness condition suitable for reproducing surface appearance using computer graphics. First, observers memorized the appearance and impression of objects by viewing pre-observation images rendered using various environment maps. Then they evaluated the appearance of the objects in test images rendered under different levels of diffuseness. As a result, moderate diffuseness conditions received a higher evaluation than low diffuseness conditions. This means that low or very high diffuseness unfamiliar in daily life is unsuitable for reproducing a faithful and ideal surface appearance. However, a particular material is difficult to memorize and evaluate its appearance. The results suggest that it is possible to define a diffuseness that adequately reproduces the appearance of an object using computer graphics.
