Welcome to the home of Tob. My areas of interest and expertise include computer graphics in general, real-time global illumination and augmented reality. I am a graphics programmer at Unity Technologies.

This webpage features a portfolio of projects I'm working on, publications I have been involved in and a casually maintained log to keep it all together. If you have any questions or comments regarding my publications, source code or other things, feel free to contact me at:

The third is a collaboration with KAIST & MSRA involving Seung-Hwan Baek, @tizianzeltner, Hyun Jin Ku, Inseung Hwang, Xin Tong, and Min Kim. We’ve put together the first comprehensive database of BRDF measurements that captures changes in polarization state of light. 1/3 pic.twitter.com/9rQfghemrw

Worked some more on getting googles light field videos to play on #OculusQuest via @unity3d

A small change to your ray tracer's random number sampler can eliminate most noise from large area lights.

A most excellent overview of the units and measures of light, like a thesis introduction to the topic, but awesome and with interactive previews. Also, subscribe to the blog, the archive contains other great articles: ciechanow.ski/archives/ twitter.com/BCiechanowski/… pic.twitter.com/PujWM7x3wV

EGSR is happening free and virtually this week, and HPG, SIGGRAPH, and I3D are also virtual. I've gathered what I know here: realtimerendering.com/blog/cancel-yo…

So much effort goes into suppressing video compression so that denoising papers can show off noise-vs-reduction properly, and now that #EGSR2020 is streamed it is out of our control anyway...
