BRDF website updated

Hi folks,

quick note to those interested in BRDF/BSDF measured data:

The collection of BRDF data at http://www.pab.eu/gonio-photometer/demodata/bme/ got an updated set of visualisations of the out-of-plane data, using a newer version of my mountain tool. The new one is more quantitative, which should help getting the message to folks not so familiar with BRDFs. Feedback as to that aim is appreciated, on- or off-list.

For those newer on the list, here's last year's talk which mentions the bme data: http://www.pab-opto.de/radiance/vortrag_september_2011/brtf-talk-2011.web.pdf

And while we're at it: Anyone actually used that data to motivate or test other BSDF models in Radiance (or other renderers) ?

thanks, best
Peter

Hi Peter,

We've been working on an interpolation method for filling in missing measurements in anisotropic data. We currently need a certain number of incident angles to interpolate from, which is a bit limiting....

Cheers,
