Wannabe Amazing

Research - Java and Java3D software

Wannabe Amazing is a tool designed to work with global illumination rendering systems. It allows the user to easily convert many scene formats and also to define and evaluate BRDFs functions. See details
. Developed for obtaining DEA (Diploma de Estudios Avanzados).

wannabe.realistic.FancySoft is an application included in Wannabe Amazing that is able to define and export any of the reflectance models implemented in the system. It hepls the user to test the behavior of this function in 2D (polar and cartesian coordinates) as well as in 3D.

wannabe.path. Walk is a java application included in Wannabe Amazing that implement a naive path tracing algorithm (see details). In these framework we tested our method for the stochastically selection of directions based on a generic BRDF function (see details).

wannabe. Grf is the multiplatform version of GRF viewer. For details about these scene definition format, please consult BNF reference.

Some examples of GRF scenes

• GRF set 1
• GRF set 2
