Description

The image-based acquisition of complex optical material properties is one of the major research topics in our group.
The goal of this project is the development of novel techniques for the efficient and high-fidelity capture of high-dimensional material representations like, e.g. the bidirectional texture function (BTF). Example data is publicy available in our download section.
