Spherical harmonic library

Keywords: Lighting simulation - Materials - Plug-in

Functional Description

The spherical harmonic library regroups a set of tools to decompose spherical functions in to spherical and rotated zonal harmonics. It also implements two spherical harmonic rotation formulas (Jan Kautz' ZXZXZ method, and the rotation formula derived in Cyril Soler's PhD thesis). A graphical tool called shdisplay is also included and allows to visualize and manipulate distributions of spherical harmonics.
