This repository implemented several ToF rendering algorithms using Mitsuba3. This repository is extended version of our previous D-ToF renderer at here (SIGGRAPH Asia 2023).
To compile, follow the original Mitsuba3's compliation guide at here. We also provide a video that installs Mitsuba3ToF which could be found at here.

This example provides an simple transient rendering for cornell-box scene.

For transient rendering, we use binning and build a histogram for the transient signal.
Here, transient signal is equivalent to impulse response.
We provide two integrators, transient
for surface rendering, and voltransient
for participating media (volumetric) rendering.
Followings are used parameters for both of the integrators.
tMin
: Minimum path length.tMax
: Maximum path length.tBin
: Number of time bins.tRes
: Path length resolution in histogram. IftBin
is set,tBin
is used with higher priority.

Instead of a series of images, time gated rendering only renders a single image at specific time stamp (or path length). We provide two integrators, timegated
for surface rendering, and voltimegated
(TODO) for participating media rendering.
Followings are used parameters for both of the integrators.
-
targetDist
($t0$ ) : Target path length. -
windowSize
($w$ ) : A parameter used for path length importance function. -
mode
: Path length importance function. We provide following 5 modes. Each mode returns following value, where$v = (t - t0) / w$ and$t$ is path distance-
box
:$1(|v| < 0.5)$ -
tent
:$\max(1 - |v|, 0)$ -
cos
:$\cos(2 \pi|v|)$ -
sin
:$\sin(2 \pi|v|)$ -
exponential
:$u(-v)\exp(v)$
-
box with windowSize 1 |
exponential with windowSize 0.1 |
