Abstract

When a rendering algorithm has created a pixel array of radiance

values the task of producing an image is not yet completed. In fact,
to visualize the result the radiance values still have to be mapped
to luminances, which can be reproduced by the used display. This
step is performed with the help of tone reproduction operators.
These tools have mainly been applied to still images, but of course
they are just as necessary for walkthrough applications, in which
several images are created per second. In this talk
the physiological aspects of tone reproduction for interactive
applications will be illuminated. It is shown how tone reproduction
can also be introduced into interactive viewers, where the tone
reproduction continuously adjusts to the current view of the user.
