  1. Basic Principles of Surface Reflectance Lecture #3 Thanks to Shree Nayar, Ravi Ramamoorthi, Pat Hanrahan

  2. Shape from Shading Photometric Stereo Reflection Separation Texture Modeling Methods Relying on Surface Reflectance

  3. Camera Physical Models Computer Computer Vision: Building Machines that See Lighting Scene We need to understand the relation between the lighting, surface reflectance and medium and the image of the scene.

  4. Surface Appearance sensor source normal surface element Image intensities = f ( normal, surface reflectance, illumination ) Surface Reflection depends on both the viewing and illumination direction.

  5. BRDF: Bidirectional Reflectance Distribution Function source z incident direction viewing direction normal y surface element x Irradiance at Surface in direction Radiance of Surface in direction BRDF :

  6. Important Properties of BRDFs source z incident direction viewing direction normal y surface element x • Rotational Symmetry: • BRDF does not change when surface is rotated about the normal. BRDF is only a function of 3 variables : • Helmholtz Reciprocity: (follows from 2nd Law of Thermodynamics) • BRDF does not change when source and viewing directions are swapped.

  7. Derivation of the Scene Radiance Equation From the definition of BRDF:

  8. Derivation of the Scene Radiance Equation – Important! From the definition of BRDF: Write Surface Irradiance in terms of Source Radiance: Integrate over entire hemisphere of possible source directions: Convert from solid angle to theta-phi representation:

  9. Differential Solid Angle and Spherical Polar Coordinates

  10. Mechanisms of Reflection source incident direction surface reflection body reflection surface Surface Reflection: Specular Reflection Glossy Appearance Highlights Dominant for Metals Body Reflection: Diffuse Reflection Matte Appearance Non-Homogeneous Medium Clay, paper, etc Image Intensity = Body Reflection + Surface Reflection

  11. Mechanisms of Surface Reflection Surface Reflection: Specular Reflection Glossy Appearance Highlights Dominant for Metals Body Reflection: Diffuse Reflection Matte Appearance Non-Homogeneous Medium Clay, paper, etc Many materials exhibit both Reflections:

  12. Diffuse Reflection and Lambertian BRDF source intensity I incident direction normal viewing direction surface element • Surface appears equally bright from ALL directions! (independent of ) albedo • Lambertian BRDF is simply a constant : • Surface Radiance : source intensity • Commonly used in Vision and Graphics!

  13. Diffuse Reflection and Lambertian BRDF

  14. White-out Conditions from an Overcast Sky CAN’T perceive the shape of the snow covered terrain! CAN perceive shape in regions lit by the street lamp!! WHY?

  15. Diffuse Reflection from Uniform Sky • Assume Lambertian Surface with Albedo = 1 (no absorption) • Assume Sky radiance is constant • Substituting in above Equation: Radiance of any patch is the same as Sky radiance !! (white-out condition)

  16. Specular Reflection and Mirror BRDF source intensity I specular/mirror direction incident direction normal viewing direction surface element • Very smooth surface. • All incident light energy reflected in a SINGLE direction. (only when = ) • Mirror BRDF is simply a double-delta function : specular albedo • Surface Radiance :

  17. Specular Reflections in Nature It's surprising how long the reflections are when viewed sitting on the river bank. Compare sizes of objects and their reflections! The reflections when seen from a lower view point are always longer than when viewed from a higher view point.

  18. Specular Reflections in Nature The reflections of bright objects have better perceived contrast. Intensity of reflected light is a fraction of the direct light – [Fresnel term (derivation in a later class)]
