Perceptually guided high-fidelity rendering exploiting movement bias in visual attention

Perceptual rendering is a key component in achieving realistic rendering in real-time. Understanding to what the human visual system is attending, allows only that part of the scene to be rendered at the highest quality while the remainder can be rendered at a much lower quality, at a significantly reduced computational cost, without the viewer noticing this quality difference. The paper makes a major contribution to perceptual rendering and is being used in a joint TSB funded project (14345-87267) with Johnson Tiles (jwood@johnson-tiles.com) for accurately visualising interior designs. This led directly to a Royal Society Industrial Fellowship, commenced September 2012.
