Connectikpeople recalls that Global
illumination is a term used to describe advanced, photorealistic lighting
effects in 3D graphics. Typical graphics applications today are limited to
simple, direct lighting effects only. With global illumination, effects such as
compound reflections, refractions, shadows and other advanced effects can be
enabled, providing more life-like graphics quality.
