Vertex connection and merging: image comparison

Below we compare the images of four different scenes produced by three global illumination algorithms after 30 minutes of rendering against a high quality 24-hour reference image: stochastic progressive photon mapping (PPM), bidirectional path tracing (BPT), and vertex connection and merging (VCM).

Tip: Move the mouse over the images to compare the algorithms on specific parts of the scene.

Note: The images on this web page take approx. 19MB in total, so the page may take some time to fully load.
