Abstract
An image processing method includes determining a number of virtual point light (VPL) samplings for each area of a current frame, applying VPLs sampled in a previous frame to the current frame, adjusting a result of the applying based on the determined number of VPL samplings, and rendering the current frame based on VPLs sampled in the current frame.
