We present a new, real-time method for rendering diffuse and glossy objects in low-frequency lighting environments that captures soft shadows, interreflections, and caustics. As a...

Abstract. We present an algorithm for interpolating the visible portions of a point cloud that are sampled from opaque objects in the environment. Our algorithm projects point clou...
