Goal
Goal: Given a normal map, produce a height map
Computer Science Department Colloquium Series ? p.2
Motivation
Original height maps may not be available Height maps are easier to edit than normal maps Constructing a surface from a height map is trivial
Computer Science Department Colloquium Series ? p.3
Background: Normal Vector
The normal vector of a surface is a vector perpendicular to the surface
Usually a unit vector
Given a surface define by the bivariate vector function P(u, v) the surface normal for a point on P is defined by:
N(u, v)
=
P(u,v) u
?
P(u,v) v

Background: Normal Map
A normal map is a RGB image, each pixel of which represents a normal Each channel of each pixel represents a component of the normal
