Surfaces

The surface shader defines the light interaction at the surface of the mesh. One or more BSDFs specify if incoming light is reflected back, refracted into the mesh, or absorbed.

Emission はそのサーフェスからどのように光線が発射されるかを定義します、全てのサーフェスは光源になる事ができます。

用語

BSDF

Stands for Bidirectional Scattering Distribution Function. It defines how light is reflected and refracted at a surface.

Reflection (反射)

BSDFs reflect an incoming ray on the same side of the surface.

Transmission (透過)

BSDFs transmit an incoming ray through the surface, leaving on the other side.

Refraction (屈折)

BSDFs are a type of Transmission, transmitting an incoming ray and changing its direction as it exits on the other side of the surface.

BSDF のパラメータ

A major difference from non-physically-based renderers is that direct light reflection from lights and indirect light reflection of other surfaces are not decoupled, but rather handled using a single BSDF. This limits the possibilities a bit, but we believe overall it is helpful in creating consistent-looking renders with fewer parameters to tune.

Roughness (表面粗さ)

For the glossy BSDFs, the roughness parameter controls the sharpness of the reflection, from 0.0 (perfectly sharp) to 1.0 (very soft).
