Non Photo Realistic Rendering (NPR)
One of the goals of non photo realistic rendering techniques is to simulate artistic, handmade, sketchs out of 2D or 3D models. This can be quite a complex topic because the human behavior is all but easy to mimic. HOOPS Luminate can be used to generate NPR images such as the one below:
There’s no built-in solution for NPR rendering available directly from within HOOPS Luminate. However, we’ll get into the details on how to use HOOPS Luminate to generate two styles of renderings.
Cartoon Rendering
The Cartoon Shading tutorial will detail how custom shaders can be simply set to provide a toon style rendering to any geometry displayed by HOOPS Luminate.
Sketch Rendering
The Sketch Rendering tutorial will detail how this type of result can be achieved, mainly as a post-processing.
