Abstract
The goal of realistic image synthesis is to create a computer
generated picture that is virtually indistinguishable from the camera
generated picture of the equivalent real scene. Such a process, slow
and expensive, uses knowledge that comes from very different fields
(numerical algorithmic, analytic geometry, signal theory, photometry,
colorimetry and even biology).
In the present work we detail, one by one, the different steps needed
to create realistic pictures (geometrical and optical modelling,
geometrical and optical enrichment, illumination, visualisation). For
each step we propose, first, to create a unifying frame for the
existing methods, and second, to give some new techniques either to
facilitate the implementation of that step or to speed-up the
corresponding computations.
The final goal is to obtain a realistic image synthesis process that
is faster and easier.
