Written Exercise 3

Due Tuesday, Nov. 16
  1. A diffuse light source with area A emits equal radiance L everywhere across its surface, uniformly in all directions. Find the total power emitted.
  2. A point light source having an intensity of 1 watt per steradian (emitting uniformly in all directions) is 1 meter away from the center of a square patch of surface, of edge length 1 meter. Find the irradiance at the center of the square, and at the corner.




  3. Following are three different versions of the rendering equation. For each one, provide a picture ad short phrase or equation describing each term (e.g., I(x' -> x'') is the intensity of light traveling from point x' to point x''). Then, show that the equations are the same by deriving two of them from one of the others.
