Simulated Fabrics Lit by a Square Area Light

Caption

From left to right are (top row) linen plain, silk crepe de chine, front side of polyester satin charmeuse fabric, back side of the polyester satin charmeuse. Bottom row: silk shot fabric, velvet, an imaginary fabric made of silk and polyester threads with a shantung weaving pattern, and an imaginary fabric with asymmetric, mirror like peaks. The model is based on a novel approach that simulates the interaction of light with cloth by simulating how each thread scatters light. The model then uses that information based on the fabric's weaving pattern.
