  • January 2014: Matt Pharr, Greg Humphreys, and Pat Hanrahan were awarded a Scientific and Technical Academy Award for Physically Based Rendering:

Physically based rendering has transformed computer graphics lighting by more accurately simulating materials and lights, allowing digital artists to focus on cinematography rather than the intricacies of rendering. First published in 2004, Physically Based Rendering is both a textbook and a complete source-code implementation that has provided a widely adopted practical roadmap for most physically based shading and lighting systems used in film production.
