Hello,
Has anyone an example of how to write a .cal function for plasfunc,
for a given BRDF?
Specifically, I am not sure which predefined variables correspond to
the view direction vector.
This is the BRDF I want to use in Radiance:
V(i,j,n,a)=(1/PI)*(a/(a+(i dot n)(j dot n))
:i is unit vector from the source direction, j is unit vector of view
direction, n is surface normal, a some other parameter.
I know the Radiance-predefined variable names for the source direction
(x,y,z) and surface normal (Nx,Ny,Nz), but I am not sure what to use
for the view direction.
Can anyone help?
Thank you!
katja
