Caustic Forecasting: Unbiased Estimation of Caustic Lighting for Global Illumination

We present an unbiased method for generating caustic lighting using importance sampled Path Tracing with Caustic Forecasting. Our technique is part of a straightforward rendering scheme which extends the Illumination by Weak Singularities method to allow for fully unbiased global illumination with r...
