Abstract
There is provided a system including a hardware processor, a memory, and an illumination rendering unit including a virtual object discrimination module stored in the memory. The hardware processor is configured to execute the illumination rendering unit to perform a first, primitive render of an illumination of a scene including multiple virtual objects, and to determine a score for each of the virtual objects corresponding to its respective contribution to the illumination of the scene. The hardware processor is also configured to execute the illumination rendering unit to identify one or more of the virtual objects as disregardable based on their respective scores, and to perform a second render of the illumination of the scene while disregarding presence of the identified one or more virtual objects as disregardable in the scene.
