Member Function Documentation

emitted()

Raytracer::Utils::Color Raytracer::Materials::Dielectric::emitted ( double u, double v, const Utils::Point3 & point ) const

overridevirtual

Calculate the refracted ray.

This function calculates the refracted ray. The function returns the refracted ray.

Parameters

uv	The unit vector.
normal	The normal vector.
index	The refraction index.

Returns

The refracted ray.

Implements Raytracer::Interfaces::IMaterial.

reflectance()

double Raytracer::Materials::Dielectric::reflectance ( double cosine, double index )

static

Calculate the reflectance of the dielectric material.

This function calculates the reflectance of the dielectric material. The function returns the reflectance of the dielectric material.

Parameters

cosine	The cosine of the angle.
index	The refraction index.

Returns

The reflectance of the dielectric material.

scatter()

bool Raytracer::Materials::Dielectric::scatter ( const Core::Ray & ray, const Core::Payload & payload, Utils::Color & attenuation, Core::Ray & scattered ) const

overridevirtual

Scatter the ray with the dielectric material.

This function scatters the ray with the dielectric material. The function returns true if the ray is scattered. The function returns false if the ray is not scattered. The function updates the attenuation and scattered ray.

Parameters

ray	The ray to scatter.
payload	The payload of the ray.
attenuation	The attenuation of the ray.
scattered	The scattered ray.

Returns

true if the ray is scattered, false otherwise.

Implements Raytracer::Interfaces::IMaterial.
