minimal but extensible header only implementation of photon mapping in C++.
Note
This Project aims at determining the illumination of virtual plants and study the influence of their environment.
create and activate the conda environment:
conda env create -f environment.yml
conda activate photonmapTo install as a Python library:
python -m pip install ./To compile the source code without installing (useful for debugging):
mkdir ./build && cd ./build
cmake -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Debug ../
make -jconda activate photonmap
cd examples/python/plantgl-rad-scene
python planglRadScene.py- The result of the simulation is in the folder: ./results/
- Tools to evalutate result: .examples/python/Evaluation Simulation SEC2/
conda activate photonmap
pip install pgljupyter
cd examples/python/plantgl-rad-scene
jupyter notebook- Direct illumination with explicit light sampling

- Caustics photon map
- Load obj model
- C++ (20>=)

This project was originaly developed by YumcyaWiz(Kenta Eto). Main extension were developed by Aurélien Besnier and Nguyen Tuan Minh with contribution of J. Bertheloot, F. Boudon, E. Faure. This work was funded by INRAe Metaprogramme DIGIT-BIO (Digital biology to explore and predict living organisms in their environment).
This project is used in the coupling of MorphoNet and L-Py for the project Physioscope.
