Paul Debevec

Paul Debevec is a computer graphics researcher known for his work in creating realistic digital images and 3D models of real-world scenes and people. He pioneered techniques to capture light information from real objects, enabling the creation of highly authentic virtual environments and characters. His innovations have advanced visual effects in movies, video games, and virtual reality, allowing us to experience scenes and people with remarkable realism. Debevec's work bridges art and science, improving how computers simulate the way light interacts with objects to produce lifelike images.
