Radiosity (computer graphics)

Radiosity is a numerical technique used in computer graphics to simulate the way light interacts with surfaces in a scene, particularly for generating realistic images of 3D environments. It is particularly effective for diffuse lighting, where surfaces reflect light uniformly in all directions, which is common in many real-world materials. The key concepts of radiosity are as follows: 1. **Energy Transfer**: Radiosity focuses on the energy transfer between surfaces.
