This repository provides the following scenes for use with pbrt-v4. We will be adding more scenes in the coming weeks and would happily accept contributions of additional ones!

Barcelona Pavilion

Daytime Barcelona Pavilion

barcelona-pavilion/

A model of van der Rohe's classic Barcelona Pavilion, including both daytime and nighttime lighting setups. In the daytime setup, all illumination comes from a realistic sky model encoded in an HDR environment map. The night model has a very dark sky map and a number of area light sources; it is particularly challenging to render, as much of the illumination travels through one or more layers of glass before hitting a surface.

Thanks to Hamza Cheggour, who created this great model and made it available via a CC-BY license.

Bistro

Bistro

bistro/

Amazon Lumberyard's "Bistro" model, featuring a detailed model of a Parisian street. This model is via NVIDIA's Open Research Content Archive (ORCA) and is licensed under a CC-BY license.

BMW M6

BMW M6

bmw-m6/

This nice model of a BMW M6 automobile is thanks to tyrant monkey from Blend Swap. CC Zero (Public Domain) license.

Bunny Cloud

Bunny cloud

bunny-cloud/

The classic Stanford bunny model, remade using volumetric media to give it a cloud-like appearance. The bunny is stored in a NanoVDB volume that was converted from an OpenVDB volume from the OpenVDB repository.

Bunny Fur

Bunny fur

bunny-fur/

The Stanford bunny model, now covered in fur that is modeled using pbrt's curve shape for its geometry and pbrt's hair BSDF for its reflection. This scene is computationally challenging to render, requiring long light paths in difficult-to-intersect geometry.

Contemporary Bathroom

Contemporary Bathroom

Crown

Crown

crown/

Detailed model of the Austrian Imperial Crown, featuring an accurate reflection model for the gold metal surfaces, and many gems that refract light passing through them.

This amazing model was created by Martin Lubich (http://www.loramel.net/).

Dam Break

Dam break

dambreak/

Two frames of a fluid simlulation from Yining Karl Li's nifty Ariel fluid simulator.

Disney Cloud

Disney Cloud

disney-cloud/

The cloud from the dataset provided by Disney (see here).

The original dataset includes the HD render computed with Disney's Hyperion, and the cloud density field voxelized at different resolutions and stored in OpenVDB volumes. It also includes a Mitsuba scene description file and the associated SD render computed with it. The original dataset is Copyright 2017 Disney Enterprises, Inc. and is licensed under the CCA-SA 3.0 Licence. The volumetric cloud model used for reference is a photograph by Kevin Udy provided on the Colorado Clouds Blog and licensed under the CCA-SA 3.0 Licence.

The voxelized density field is stored in a NanoVDB volume that was converted from the OpenVDB "quarter" resolution volume due to github's limitations on file size; it can easily be replaced with higher-resolution versions downloaded from Disney's website.

Explosion

Explosion

explosion/

A volumetric fiery explosion, stored in a NanoVDB volume that was converted from an OpenVDB volume from the OpenVDB repository.

Ganesha

Ganesha

ganesha/

Very detailed scan of a small statue with over 4.3 million triangles, illuminated by a few area light sources.

Model scanned by Wenzel Jakob.

Hair

Hair

hair/

Geometric hair models lit by an environment map, showing the effect of rendering using pbrt's HairBxDF scattering model with parameters that simulate various types of hair.

Head

Head

head/

Human head model with a realistic BSSRDF, showing the effect of subsurface scattering.

Model thanks to Infinite Realities, Inc., CC-BY license. Environment thanks to Sergej Majboroda via Poly Haven (CC0 license).

Killeroos

Coated Gold Killeroo

killeroos/

The classic "killeroo" model, with a variety of materials and in a variety of settings.

Thanks to headus for the model.

Landscape

Landscape

landscape/

Complex realistic outdoor landscape scene, featuring 23,241 unique plant models. Thanks to object instancing, the scene has a total geometric complexity of 3.1 billion triangles, even though only 24 million triangles need to be stored in memory. view-0.pbrt is the cover image of the third edition of the Physically Based Rendering book.

Many thanks to Jan-Walter Schliep, Burak Kahraman, and Timm Dapper from Laubwerk for this amazing scene, which is licensed under a CC-BY license.

LTE Orb

Measured blue vinyl wrap

lte-orb/

Spherical orb with an inset spherical object. The geometric structure of the shapes involved provides a useful tool for visualizing the appearance of various materials. (A simplified version of the scene without the light transport equation is also available.)

Thanks to Yasutoshi Mori (@MirageYM) for this model; CC-BY license.

PBRT Book

pbrt book

pbrt-book/

A realistic model of the second edition of the Physically Based Rendering book.

Thanks to Karl Li (@yiningkarlli) for this fun model.

San Miguel

San Miguel courtyard

sanmiguel/

A complex model inspired by a hotel in San Miguel de Allende, Mexico.

Thanks to Guillermo M. Leal Llaguno for this excellent scene.

Smoke Plume

Smoke plume with sphere

smoke-plume/

A smoke simulation around an obstacle using volume data generated using the simulator published with Kim et al.'s Wavelet Turbulence for Fluid Simulation paper.

Sportscar

Sportscar

sportscar/

Sportscar model, where nearly every surface uses a measured BRDF from the RGL Material Database.

SSS Dragon

Dragon

sssdragon/

Dragon model rendered with subsurface scattering, where multiple scene description files show the visual effect of changing the density of the scattering medium.

Dragon model courtesy Stanford Computer Graphics Laboratory. Environment map thanks to Bernhard Vogl.

Transparent Machines

Frame 812

transparent-machines/

A variety of detailed glass shapes illuminated by skylight. For good results, upwards of 64 ray bounces are required.

Models are from frames of @beeple's amazing Transparent Machines video.

Villa

Daylight villa

villa/

Modern indoor environment.

Many thanks to Florent Boyer for this scene.

Zero Day

Zero Day, Measure One, Frame 180

zero-day/

A number of frames converted from Beeple's amazing Zero-Day animation. Converted from Cinema4D files downloaded from Beeple's website. (Note that the original materials and lighting is much better--improvements to our conversion gratefully received!)
