Reflectance, lighting and geometry combine in complex ways to create images. How do we
disentangle these to perceive individual properties, such as surface glossiness? We suggest …

Visual search in natural scenes is a complex task relying on peripheral vision to detect
potential targets and central vision to verify them. The segregation of the visual fields has …

Material appearance hinges on material reflectance properties but also surface geometry
and illumination. The unlimited number of potential combinations between these factors …

Micromirrors are used in integrated photonics to couple extraplanar light into the planar
structure of a device by redirecting light via specular reflection. Compared with grating or …

This study investigates the potential impact of subsurface light transport on gloss perception
for the purposes of broadening our understanding of visual appearance in computer …

The appearance of a surface depends on four main appearance attributes, namely color,
gloss, texture, and translucency. Gloss is an important attribute that people use to …

Vision researchers are interested in map** complex physical stimuli to perceptual
dimensions. Such a map** can be constructed using multidimensional psychophysical …

While much attention has been given to understanding biases in gloss perception (eg,
changes in perceived reflectance as a function of lighting, shape, viewpoint, and other …

Realistic renderings of materials with complex optical properties, such as goniochromatism
and non-diffuse reflection, are difficult to achieve. In the context of the print and packaging …

Introduction Designers know that part of the appreciation of a product comes from the
properties of its materials. These materials define the object's appearance and produce …
