Explorer of Monte-Carlo based Algorithms can be used to explorer, analyze or debug path tracing algorithms based on Monte Carlo Integration.

emca's Issues

History should show more than x elements

At the moment the history pixel view does not keep track of all selected pixel. Only the latest x [5-10] elements are kept.

Sample Contribution View plot does not resize with main window

Implement Unit Tests

In order to allow for CI write useful unit tests.

Improve how data is transferred between server and client

Instead of sending Camera, Mesh and Render info data as tiny packages build one struct package and send it at once.

Implement validator of data

This validator should check if at least the minimal of data is added so that emca can work correctly.
(sampleIdx, path depthIdx etc.). Show a pop up message if the requirement is not satisfied.

Add Server Code to Repo

Add current used server code with example.
Think about architecture and implementation in other render systems.
Make server code as easy as possible.

RenderSettings not working correctly

Rethink how Renderer is currently implemented.

Switch from PyQt5 to Pyside2 to get LGPL license

Sample 3D Plot not working correctly if there is just one sample

3D Sample plot in Vertex data plot plugin not working if there is just one 2D Sample point(x,y)

Improve Highlighter Base class since it is not working for 3D plots

This is more a bug than a feature enhancement since the Highlighter3D inherits from the base highlighter which can only handle 2D plots. Re-think base class since x-Axis must be always the sampleCount / amount of paths.

Create Documentation

Allow plugins to interact with render scene view

Sometimes it might be useful to add more elements to the VTK renderer. This feature should allow for plugins to add elements to the 3D scene view.

Improve Model-View-Controller Code Architecture and Code Cleanup

• Improve Model-View-Controller concept.
• General clean up. Remove obsolete and old code.
• Check on comments

Improve Code Architecture of 3D Scene Renderer

• Include support of basic shapes, Vertex, Line, Sphere, Triangle, (AABB)
• Base Class for 3D objects
• Handle Scene Options properly ( RenderOptions <-> View )
