Methods, systems, and non-transitory computer readable storage media are disclosed for generating enriched light sources by utilizing surface-centric representations of three-dimensional surfaces. Specifically, the disclosed system utilizes a surface-centric re-parameterization that combines geometric and algebraic components of a sphere to model different light source types in a continuous range of lighting configurations. The disclosed systems utilize a set of intuitive parameters to determine a shape and emission parameters for generating an enriched light source. Additionally, the disclosed system provides a set of interactive light source controls to modify a position, orientation, shape, emittance, and lighting attenuation over distance of a light source within a three-dimensional environment. The disclosed system determines the light source controls based on sets of three-dimensional interaction primitives to control one or more parameters of the light source. The disclosed system provides the light source controls for consistently modifying various light source types within the three-dimensional environment.

Modifying light sources within three-dimensional environments by utilizing control models based on three-dimensional interaction primitives

Methods, systems, and non-transitory computer readable storage media are disclosed for rendering portions of a three-dimensional environment at different sampling rates based on a focus frame within a graphical user interface. Specifically, the disclosed system provides a tool for marking a region of a graphical user interface displaying a three-dimensional environment. The disclosed system generates a focus frame based on the marked region of the graphical user interface and attaches the focus frame to a portion of the three-dimensional environment. The disclosed system assigns a first sampling rate to the portion of the three-dimensional environment displayed within the focus frame and a second sampling rate to portions of the three-dimensional environment outside the focus frame. The disclosed system renders the three-dimensional environment by sampling the portion within the focus frame at the first sampling rate and the portions outside the focus frame at the second sampling rate.
