一个DirectX的Sample引发的学习（1）

 

 

这个例子描述了怎么使用 D3DX 的 SHPRTSimulation ，一个 per vertex precomputed radiance transfer (PRT) 的 simulator 。使用了 low-order spherical harmonics (SH) 并把结果记录到文件中。然后描述了怎么使用 clustered principal component analysis (CPCA) 来压缩数据并在实时的 arbitrary lighting 的环境下使用 vs_1_1 vertex shader 来显示结果 .

虽然整个 Sample 的代码相对比较简单，但是背后的原理，却稍显复杂，至少对我来说，比较复杂，于是乎，查找了相关的论文，论文正在学习加翻译中，感觉受益匪浅。
