Abstract

The invention discloses a parallelization type progressive photon mapping method and device based on OpenCL. The parallelization type progressive photon mapping method and device are applied to the overall illumination field in the virtual reality technology. Parallelization type progressive photon mapping is achieved through the OpenCL. The parallelization type progressive photon mapping method comprises the steps that firstly, initialization is conducted, a scene model is loaded, and the OpenCL calculating parameters are initialized; secondly, parallelization is conducted on viewpoint ray tracing, photo tracing and scene rendering based on the OpenCL, working loads are designed on corresponding processors reasonably, and after a command queue is executed, a computation result is read and transmitted to a CPU; finally, data resources stored in the CPU are released through the OpenCL standard library functions. By the adoption of the parallelization type progressive photon mapping method and device based on the OpenCL, the efficiency of the progressive photon mapping algorithm can be improved remarkably, compared with a computation method that design is conducted on the CPU, the efficiency is improved by four to nine times, the transportability is high, and the rendering effect is improved to a certain extent.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to an OpenCL-based parallel progressive photon mapping method and device, which improves the efficiency of the progressive photon mapping algorithm, has high application value for realistic global illumination, and belongs to the technical field of virtual reality. Background technique [0002] As computer graphics are widely used in digital entertainment, virtual navigation, education and learning, simulation training, virtual medical treatment, e-commerce and other fields, people have higher and higher requirements for the realism of graphics rendering, and the realistic global illumination is to improve One of the key technologies for the realism of virtual scenes.
