FISHEYE REFLECTOR & REFRACTOR
Click above for details.

Using a reflector(mirror)/refractor(lens) and camera contained in the following 3ds max scene files,
you can directly render dome masters (circular fisheye images) without stitching.
The scene files also include shield objects to block unwanted rays.

	Fisheye Reflector & Camera (max scene, 53.1 KB) Rendered images are mirror images that are laterally reversed. When you add a new object beteen the reflector and the camera, don't forget to uncheck the Visible to Camera checkbox in its Object Properties. This is a max 4 file. Somehow, it appears that the Material Editor of 3ds max 5 or later cannot read them correctly. In that case, please build a raytrace material using the same parameters manually.
	Fisheye Refractor & Camera (max scene, 138.7 KB) This is a max 4 file. Somehow, it appears that the Material Editor of 3ds max 5 or later cannot read them correctly. In that case, please build a raytrace material using the same parameters manually.
	Fisheye Reflector (3ds object, 35.0 KB) Set a camera with a FOV of 90 degrees at the position of the Camera Position object.
	Fisheye Refractor (3ds object, 130.6 KB) Set a camera with a FOV of 90 degrees at the position of the Camera Position object. The refractive index should be set to the inverse of the square root of 2 (approximately 0.707).

CAMERA RIG FOR DOME MASTERS


This scene file includes a group of cameras to render images of each direction
that are used in the stitching method.

Cameras for Dome Masters (max scene, 14.9 KB) A set of five cameras (Front Camera, Top Camera, Left Camera, Right Camera, and Back Camera) to render source images for dome masters.

DOME OBJECT FOR DOME MASTERS


These are dome-shaped mesh objects (in the 3ds format)
to which you can apply your dome master as a texture map.
Applying a fisheye photograph, you can easily use it
as an environment map or an HDRI map. (You don't have to defish the photograph.)
