Detailed Description

Weighted pixel storage for a rectangular subregion of an image.

This class implements storage for a rectangular subregion of a larger image that is being rendered. For each pixel, it records color values along with a weight that specifies the accumulated influence of nearby samples on the pixel (according to the used reconstruction filter).

When rendering with filters, the samples in a rectangular region will generally also contribute to pixels just outside of this region. For that reason, this class also stores information about a small border region around the rectangle, whose size depends on the properties of the reconstruction filter.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

◆ ImageBlock()

NORI_NAMESPACE_BEGIN ImageBlock::ImageBlock ( const Vector2i size,
const ReconstructionFilter filter 
)

Create a new image block of the specified maximum size

Parameters
sizeDesired maximum size of the block
filterSamples will be convolved with the image reconstruction filter provided here.

Definition at line 27 of file block.cpp.

Member Function Documentation

◆ put()

void ImageBlock::put ( ImageBlock b)

Merge another image block into this one.

During the merge operation, this function locks the destination block using a mutex.

Definition at line 124 of file block.cpp.

◆ toBitmap()

Bitmap * ImageBlock::toBitmap ( ) const

Turn the block into a proper bitmap.

This entails normalizing all pixels and discarding the border region.
