We propose a new method for superimposing synthetic objects with natural shadings and cast shadows onto a real scene whose illumination condition is dynamically changing in this paper. In general, high computational cost for rendering virtual objects with convincing shading and shadows, such as interreflections or shadows under area light sources, prohibits real-time synthesis of such composite images with superimposed virtual objects. To overcome this limitation, we take advantage of the linearity of the relationship between brightness changes observed on an object surface and change of illumination radiance in a scene and introduce an efficient rendering technique based on a linear combination of pre-rendered reference images of the scene. We have successfully tested the proposed method in a natural illumination condition of an indoor environment to demonstrate how fast the method could superimpose a virtual object onto the scene with highly realistic shadings and shadows. © 2005 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
