| Zusammenfassung: | Material appearance of rendered objects depends on the underlying BRDF implementation used by rendering software packages. A lack of standards to exchange material parameters and data (between tools) means that artists in digital 3D prototyping and design, manually match the appearance of materials to a reference image. Since their effect on rendered output is often non-uniform and counter intuitive, selecting appropriate parameterisations for BRDF models is far from straightforward. We present a novel BRDF remapping technique, that automatically computes a mapping (BRDF Difference Probe) to match the appearance of a source material model to a target one. Through quantitative analysis, four user studies and psychometric scaling experiments, we validate our remapping framework and demonstrate that it yields a visually faithful remapping among analytical BRDFs. Most notably, our results show that even when the characteristics of the models are substantially different, such as in the case of a phenomenological model and a physically-based one, our remapped renderings are indistinguishable from the original source model |
