Principles of Photorealism to Develop Photorealistic Visualisation for Interface Design: A Review
Jong Sze Joon · 2010
With the mindset of merging both aesthetics and technical knowledge to create believable 3D visualisation, a new set of refined Principles of Photorealism are applied to enhance the 3D rendering approach consequently creating realistic yet quick to create 3D visualisation for Interface Design. This paper discusses the importance of applying the principles with consideration of interface visualisation aspects towards the human environment and the interfaces within. This includes studies of depth, perspective and spatial studies in Computer Aided Design (CAD) and Virtual Reality Added Design (VRAD) for Interface Design. The case studies selected emphasize on exact measurement and accurate mapping as well as lighting techniques for the most realistic output. The outcome of this study serves as a guideline to identify basic principles and elements of Photorealism to create efficient photorealistic 3D rendering in terms of model properties, textures, lighting and rendering.
