 Hello John,

You can control Radiance from Matlab (because Matlab can send dos commands
and Radiance can be controlled using dos commands or batch scripts).

(I assumed you are going to use Windows.)

Here's a piece of example code for use in Matlab:

dos('oconv sky.rad result.rad > Octree.oct')
ROPT=' -dp 512 -ar 20 -ms 0.2 -ds .3 -dt .1 -dc .5 -dr 1 -st .1 -ab 3
-af RCP.amb -aa .2 -ad 400 -as 64 -av 0.01 0.01 0.01 -lr 6 -lw .002 -i '

VIEW= ' -vtv -vp 4.800 0.200 2.200 -vd -2.300 2.400 -0.900 -vu 0 0 1 -vh
90 -vv 60 -vs 0 -vl 0 '
dos(['rpict -t 120 ', VIEW ,ROPT,' -x 64 -y 64 -ps 1 Octree.oct
> RCP_overture_5664.unf'])

dos('del RCP_overture_5664.unf')
dos(['rpict -t 120 ', VIEW,' -x 2048 -y 1536 -ps 6 -pt .08',
ROPT,' RCP.oct > RCP_c1.unf'])
dos(' pfilt -r 1 -x /2 -y /2 RCP_c1.unf > RCP_c1.pic')

dos('del RCP_c1.unf')

This might come in handy later:
In Matlab you can also use hdrread and hdrwrite commands to read and write
Radiance images.

Succes,

Guy
