Developmental Trends in the Application and Measurement of the Bidirectional Reflection Distribution Function

Abstract: The bidirectional reflection distribution function (BRDF) is among the most effective means to study the phenomenon of light–object interaction. It can precisely describe the characteristics of spatial reflection of the target surface, and has been applied to aerial remote sensing, imaging technology, materials analysis, and computer rendering technology. This study provides a comprehensive review of the development of devices to measure the BRDF. We gathered research in the area by using the Web of Science Co… Show more

“…Sunlight [26] and earthshine [27,28] together constitute the illumination conditions of the space target, as shown in Figure 1. As the space target materials are non-Lambertian objects, the light reflected by the surface can generally be divided into a specular reflection component and a diffuse reflection component [29]. Because the specular component of sunlight can cause an image to be overexposed and unusable, in legible images, the spectrometer receives the diffuse component of sunlight on each surface of the target.…”

“…Physically accurate [6,7] BRDFs are more accurate and usually take into account the division of the object's surface into facets. The physically accurate BRDFs include the Cook-Torrance [5,6], Bagher [1], Oren-Nayyar [6,12], coupled Shirley [3,6] models [1,16,19].…”

“…In other words, it describes how the surface reflects light in different directions, considering the angle of incidence and the angle of reflection. The BRDF is a function of four variables: the incident angle, the viewing angle, the wavelength of the light, and the polarization of the light [18][19][20]. BRDF measurements in general provide a complete angular distribution of how light is reflected from the surface in all directions.…”
