Render this: LCD screen (light emitting material)
-
The only light source here is the iPhone screen:

Hi,
I use Twilight and was wondering how to get the home screen to emit light and be reflective at the same time?
Can i set it as glass and 'Fake Emitter' simultaneously?
Good challenge Pete
-
Rich, why not build it just as it would be in real life? Put the glass over the emitter.
-
First run. Ok except the apple fell off somewhere!
(Updated: changed materials a little.)
-
I used modeling to provide the emitter / reflection combination. I moved the screen back a tiny bit and placed another "plastic" surface in front. Made the apple glow, just because.
-
V-ray renders, studio setup, I just used the same texture from diffuse, for the emissive layer of the v-ray material.
-
2nd try, used light caustics.
and a very low res .gif.

This Is "TWiphone"!

very nice!!!
-
Finally had a few minutes to throw these into the mix. Great renders all the way around from everyone!

Adam, I like the composition of Iphone_LED2.jpg. Good looking materials, except there is something odd going with the table lamp; ceramic base has some material (or surface normal) problem with the grazing angle.
-
Thanks Notareal. I adjusted the material and got a better result. Also added an HDRI for fill light.
-
Excellent render, Adam...
What render app. did you use...?? -
Thanks Kim. I used Vray for Max with the Solid Rocks plugin for render settings. Vray light material for the LCD.
-
A quick Photon render with Kerkythea. Again something learned about emitting light. Thanks Pete

If I may, I would like to try again.
I went to sleep last night thinking of a way to render as quickly as possible without light-emitting materials, and today I woke up and I had the idea to only using projectors, a thin glass to cover the screen, and most importantly, projector must coincides exactly with the image on the screen.
Then I looked at my clock alarm and I think that this may be interesting to show the reflection in the "thin glass" over the Iphone screen, how to do this too...? I put a red light iside the alarm and a red glass on the numbers, the result you see now!
-
Awesome effect...you have reflections going both ways
-
good topic pete, some lovely renders here. im cooking one now
-
Respect Oli. This is my favorite so far.
