We simulate the change of image appearance between photopic conditions (left) and appearance in scotopic conditions close to the absolute threshold (right), where consistent vision fades into temporally varying (not reproducible in print) noise.

We compute the product of approximated visibility and environment map lighting in a stochastic Monte Carlo volume renderer to steer a joint importance sampling of the direct lighting. Our proposed two-step approach is well suited for dynamic changes in visibility and lighting functions due to a fast sweeping-plane algorithm to estimate visibility. The insets show how our technique (blue) achieves faster convergence with less samples compared to a uniform sampling (red) and importance sampling of the environment map (yellow). Here, 64 samples per pixel have been used. The Manix data set consists of 512×512×460 voxels.

Depth Layering: While a single layer will result in a single average over all geometry (a), we can slice our scene in multiple depth layers to obtain averages for each layer separately (b).

Manipulation of different entity types within the same scene. A street entity led to the generation of several buildings, represented as shapes. Each building was given a number which was then used to produce a custom texture to attach next to each door. Light sources were then instanced on the location of each street lamp, just above the doors. The generation of each entity type therefore greatly benefits when processed in sequence, in a single pipeline, instead of in separate environments.
