experts
DESCRIPTION¶
This manual page documents briefly the
debugcal,
genambpos,
genrhgrid,
glaze,
mgf2inv,
mgfilt,
nff2rad,
objpict,
optics2rad,
pcwarp,
pdelta,
pgblur,
plot4,
ra_hexbit,
ra_pfm,
rlux,
vinfo and
xyzimage commands.
These specialty programs of the Radiance package are commonly only used by
experts, therefore the Radiance distribution does not contain full manpages
for them.
debugcal¶
debugcal is a script to debug cal files for Radiance
Takes octree and rcalc options as arguments. One of the rcalc options should be
-f calfile. Note that the real arguments A1, A2, etc must also be given. Input
is a ray origin and direction, such as that produced by ximage.
genambpos¶
genambpos is a script which puts coloured markers (spheres) at points
where hemispherical sampling was initiated. The locations and levels are taken
from the binary ambient file.
genrhgrid¶
genrhgrid is a program to generate Radiance section grid representations
glaze¶
Complex glazing model (goes with glaze1.cal and glaze2.cal)
mgf2inv¶
mgf2inv is a translator from MGF to Inventor (or VRML) format
mgfilt¶
mgfilt is a filter for MGF
nff2rad¶
nff2rad converts Neutral File Format input to Radiance scene
descriptions.
objpict¶
objpict makes a nice multi-view picture of an object. Command line
arguments contain materials and object files.
optics2rad¶
optics2rad converts Optics 5 output to correct Radiance input.
pbilat¶
Bilateral Filter.
pcwarp¶
Intended as more general substitute for macbetcal, but never quite worked.
pdelta¶
pdelta computes 1976 CIE Lab deltaE* between two Radiance pictures.
pgblur¶
pgblur applies Gaussian blur without resizing the image. More efficient
than straight pfilt for large blurs.
plot4¶
plot4 is a program to put four metafile pages onto one.
ra_hexbit¶
ra_hexbit is a program to generate bitmap files for use with
hexbit4x1.fnt.
ra_pfm¶
ra_pfm is a program to convert to/from Poskanzer Float Map image format
using pvalue.
rlux¶
rlux computes illuminance from ray origin and direction.
vinfo¶
vinfo is a wrapper around vim to edit information header in Radiance
files.
xyzimage¶
xyzimage is a program to display one or more CIE XYZE pictures using
ximage.
