Perception of qualitative shape from diffuse and specular reflections

Published: 03 August 2012 Publication History

Abstract

The shape we perceive from a rendered surface depends on the true surface shape, but also on the surface reflectance, the illumination, the surface motion, and the viewer's position. Here we present an experiment that addresses how perceived shape depends on shading and specular reflections, where the latter include highlights [Blake and Bülthoff 1990] and environment mapped mirror reflections[Fleming et al. 2004].
