Enumeration Type Documentation

enum mitsuba::EMeasure

A list of measures that are associated with various sampling methods in Mitsuba.

Every now and then, sampling densities consist of a sum of several terms defined on spaces that have different associated measures. In this case, one of the constants in EMeasure can be specified to clarify the component in question when performing query operations.

Enumerator
EInvalidMeasure	Invalid measure.
ESolidAngle	Solid angle measure.
ELength	Length measure.
EArea	Area measure.
EDiscrete	Discrete measure.

enum mitsuba::ETransportMode

Specifies the transport mode when sampling or evaluating a scattering function.

Enumerator
ERadiance	Radiance transport.
EImportance	Importance transport.
ETransportModes	Specifies the number of supported transport modes.
