| High dynamic range rendering (HDRR or HDR Rendering), also known as high dynamic range lighting, is the rendering of 3D computer graphics scenes by using lighting calculations done in a larger dynamic range. Video games and computer generated movies greatly benefit from this as it creates far more realistic scenes than with the previous lighting model (referred to as "low dynamic range lighting" or "standard lighting"). |
10 images with different exposure taken at 1pm containing the lighting information of the scene in all 360°.
