Importance sampling

Sampling procedure• choose normal according to D(m) |m • n|

explicit formulas in paper

• compute o by reflection or refraction• compute pdf of o using dωm/dωo

leaves G and some cosines for the weight

• can adjust sampling roughness to control weight

Contributions

Microfacet transmission model• new geometric formulation• clean, simple generalization of reflection

Microfacet distribution functions• evaluate three choices against data• new GGX distribution fits some surfaces better

Importance sampling

Measurement and validation• single interface transmission
