According to some implementations, Efficiency may be obtained by evaluating the final radiance along a viewing ray directly from the lighting rays passing near to it, and by rapidly identifying such lighting rays in the scene. To facilitate a search for nearby lighting rays, the lighting rays and viewing rays may be represented as a 6D point and a plane according to the corresponding Plucker coordinates and coefficients, respectively.}, url = {http://approjects.co.za/?big=en-us/research/publication/line-space-gathering-single-scattering-large-scenes-2/}, edition = {US Patent 8922556 B2}, note = {US Patent 8922556 B2}, }
