Abstract.

The paper presents methods and algorithms for distributed imitation of indirect shading of three-dimensional virtual scenes’ objects illuminated by diffused light, based on ambient occlusion technology. Using high performance parallel computing on modern graphics processors provides realtime visualization of virtual environment with such shading simulation.

Keywords:

virtual object, visualization, ambient lighting, shading, graphics processor, shaders, real time.
