SUMMARY:CS MSc Thesis Presentation 10 September 2026
DESCRIPTION:Kontakt: birger.swahn@cs.lth.se\n\nThursday\, 10 September ther
 e will be a master thesis presentation in Computer Science at Lund Univers
 ity\, Faculty of Engineering.The presentation will take place in E:4130 (L
 ucas).Note to potential opponents: Register as an opponent to the presenta
 tion of your choice by sending an email to the examiner for that presentat
 ion (firstname.lastname@cs.lth.se). Do not forget to specify the presentat
 ion you register for! Note that the number of opponents may be limited (of
 ten to two)\, so you might be forced to choose another presentation if you
  register too late. Registrations are individual\, just as the oppositions
  are! More instructions for opponents are found here on the LTH thesis pro
 ject page.13:00-14:00 in E:4130 (Lucas)Presenter: Petter SundkvistTitle: T
 exture Compression for Spherical Harmonic LightingExaminer: Flavius Gruian
 Supervisors: Michael Doggett (LTH)To circumnavigate computational limitati
 ons when implementing realistic lighting\, one might pre-compute more comp
 lex light calculations offline\, and then use this stored rendering data i
 n real-time. A subset of these implementations involves placing a number o
 f light-probes in a scene\, calculating the lighting relative to each prob
 e. One way to store an approximation of the probe-data is with the use of 
 Spherical Harmonic functions\, which will yield a series of coefficients. 
 This project studied the possibility of storing these coefficients on a te
 xture\, so that the data could further be compressed via applying texture 
 compression. To test this possibility an application was developed for com
 puting the coefficients\, writing to a texture and rendering a scene with 
 Spherical Harmonic lighting. After implementation\, the lighting using the
  compressed coefficient textures contained noticeable artifacts in the for
 m of vivid discoloration and changes in brightness.&nbsp\;\n\nMer informat
