Abstract

This paper presents the authors' introduction of photon mapping in an undergraduate computer graphics course, Software was designed as a pedagogical and demonstration tool which permitted students to practice and learn photon mapping. Classroom experience and examples that illustrate soft shadows, color bleeding, indirect illumination and caustic are also discussed.
