Lambertian distribution¶
The uniform distribution is isotropic over the half-sphere. Emitter using this distribution will be seen having the same luminance from any direction. However, the emitted radiance will depend on incidence due to the cosine projection factor from the radiative transfer equations.
Note
This distribution was renamed from “uniform” to “lambertian” after Ocean 2015 beta 3
