- Complex realistic light interaction exhibited by reflections and refractions is a fundamental problem for rendering. We demonstrate new theoretical insights into overlapping light manifolds. We deliver new algorithms to separate light manifolds, to remove noise and bias from solutions, implement them through the Domain Specific Language DSL we introduce that aids bug-free code, and use visualization to determine effectiveness. Visualization is not often used as a tool to research rendering algorithms themselves. This meta-visualization, or visualization for validation, testing, and debugging is an emerging area.
