商品描述

Introduction to Visual Effects: A Computational Approach is the first single introduction to the computational and mathematical aspects of Visual Effects, incorporating both computer vision and graphics. The book also provides the reader with the source code to a library, enabling them to follow the chapters directly and build up a complete Visual Effects platform. The book covers the basic approaches to Camera Pose Estimation, Global Illumination, and Image Based Lighting, and includes chapters on the Virtual Camera, Optimization and Computer Vision, Path Tracing and many more.

Key features include:

  • Introduction to Projective Geometry, Image Based Lighting (IBL), Global Illumination solved by the Monte Carlo Method (Pathtracing), an explanation of a set of Optimization Methods, and the techniques used for Calibrating One, Two, and Many cameras, including how to use the RANSAC algorithm in order to make the process robust, and providing code to be implemented using the Gnu Scientific Library.

  • C/C++ code using the OpenCV library, to be used in the process of tracking points on a movie (an important step for the matchmove process), and in the construction of Modeling Tools for Visual Effects.

  • A simple model of the Bidirectional Reflectance Distribution Function (BRDF) of surfaces and the Differential Rendering Method, allowing the reader to generate consistent shadows, supported by a code that can be used in combination with a software like Luminance HDR.

商品描述(中文翻譯)

《視覺效果導論：計算方法》是首部專注於視覺效果的計算和數學方面的單一介紹，涵蓋了計算機視覺和圖形學。這本書還提供了讀者一個庫的源代碼，使他們能夠直接跟隨章節並建立完整的視覺效果平台。書中涵蓋了相機姿態估計、全局照明和基於圖像的照明的基本方法，並包括虛擬相機、優化和計算機視覺、路徑追蹤等章節。

主要特點包括：
- 介紹投影幾何、基於圖像的照明（IBL）、通過蒙特卡羅方法解決的全局照明（Pathtracing）、一組優化方法的解釋，以及用於校準一台、兩台和多台相機的技術，包括如何使用RANSAC算法使過程更穩健，並提供可使用Gnu科學庫實現的代碼。
- 使用OpenCV庫的C/C++代碼，用於跟踪電影中的點（這是匹配移動過程中的一個重要步驟），以及構建視覺效果建模工具。
- 一個簡單的雙向反射分佈函數（BRDF）模型和差異渲染方法，允許讀者生成一致的陰影，並提供可以與Luminance HDR等軟件結合使用的代碼。
