Week 4 - Jan 30
This Week
- Vertex Shaders
- Lighting in Vertex Shaders
- Lighting Formulas - note the corrections below
- Notation
- Ga - global ambient color
- Ca - material ambient color
- Cd - material diffuse color
- Cs - material specular color
- Atteni - attenuation of light i
- di - distance from light i
- a0 - constant attenuation factor
- a1 - linear attenuation factor
- a2 - quadratic attenuation factor
- Atteni = 1/(a0 + a1 di + a2 di2)
- Atteni = [0, 1]
- Spoti - spot factor of light i
- Lai - ambient color of light i
- Ldi - diffuse color of light i
- Lsi - specular color of light i
- Ldiri - direction vector of light i
- N - normal to the surface at the vertex
- Hi - halfway vector
- = norm(norm(Cameraposition - Vertexposition) + Ldiri)
- = norm([0,0,1] + Ldiri) - less computationally intensive - assumes that camera is at infinity along z axis
- Ambient
- Ca * ( Ga + sum [Lai * Atteni * Spoti] )
- Diffuse
- Cd * sum [ Ldi * (N . Ldiri) * Atteni * Spoti ]
- Specular
- Cs * sum [ Lsi * (N . Hi) * Atteni * Spoti ]
- Notation
- HLSL Intrinsic Functions
- normalize() - normalize a vector
- dot(,) - dot product of two vectors of any size
- length() - length of a vector
- saturate() - clamp scalar, vector, or matrix to [0, 1]
- Lighting Formulas - note the corrections below
To Do
- reorganize framework code so that vertex shader receives product of world, view, and projection matrices
- store viewProjection matrix as an instance variable in Display
- add viewProjection query to Display to extract product of view and projection matrices
- retrieve viewProjection in *::draw() method
- pre-multiply viewProjection by world to obtain composite matrix to pass to vertex shader
- add composite matrix to the constant table in the vertex shader
- reorganize framework code to minimize duplication of heading normalization
- perform normalization of heading in Display::beginDraw()
