<p>The <b>bidirectional reflectance distribution function</b> (<b>BRDF</b>), symbol , is a function of four real variables that defines how light from a source is reflected off an <a href="page.php?w=Opacity_%28optics%29">opaque</a> surface. It is employed in the <a href="page.php?w=optics">optics</a> of real-world light, in <a href="page.php?w=computer_graphics">computer graphics</a> algorithms, and in <a href="page.php?w=computer_vision">computer vision</a> algorithms. The function takes an incoming light direction, , and outgoing direction, </p><p>
