Rendering - Tone Mapping Basics

Explore the fundamentals of tone mapping in computer graphics rendering through this lecture by Thomas Auzinger. Learn why converting radiance to RGB for display devices is a complex challenge. Delve into the scope of tone mapping, dynamic range considerations, and various examples of tone mapping techniques. Examine naive and effective tone mapping approaches, common misuses, and a taxonomy of tone mappers. Gain insights into this crucial step in the rendering pipeline, bridging the gap between simulated light transport and displayable images.
