Practical Parallax Occlusion Mapping for Highly Detailed Surface Rendering Natalya Tatarchuk
This session examines existing displacement-mapping algorithms in real-time domain. It presents the pros and cons of these algorithms for game developers. Finally, it presents an improved parallax occlusion mapping algorithm for dynamic real-time lighting of surfaces including soft shadows, a directable LOD system, and robust critical height field-ray intersection computation. Issues of integrating this algorithm into game engines will be evaluated with a real game engine case study. |
