All other rights are reserved by the author(s).We discuss a fast and efficient method to estimate the surface reflectance values with respect to different wavelength of light. Qualitative and quantitative evaluations show that surfaces rendered using surface reflectances obtained by the proposed method are more realistic when compared with conventional rendering methods.Copyright CITR, The University of Auckland.
