Abstract
Systems and methods for enhanced specular reflections are provided. An example method may include determining a first portion of a specular reflection associated with a computer-generated object based on a first contribution from an environment map component at a shading point of the computer-generated object and determining a second portion of the specular reflection associated with the computer-generated object based on a second contribution from a camera feed component at an intersection point of a camera feed and a reflection vector associated with the environment map component. The example method may further include determining the specular reflection, at the shading point, associated with the computer-generated object based on a blending of the first and second portions of the specular reflection.
