Nice but a more interesting environment/scene and camera angle would help :)
and me programming support for dispersion would be neat too :)

Radiance is referring to himself adding dispertion, which I think would be really neat, I would love to see it!

By dispersion do you mean caustics? Strong caustics would really make that image.

Dispersion is when the light is broken up by the material so that you can see all of the lights colors, think of the rainbow and how you can see the colors in it......bad explanation, but thats why we have wikipedia:-) http://www.en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dispersion_(optics)

Why does not the link work? it removes the last ")" so to make the link work you have to ad that to the address bar your self?

I was thinking maybe dispersion and caustics are related in a physically based renderer since both things are caused by refraction of light. Often times caustics show some dispersion. But I'm way out of my league here.

Dispersion and IOR for Glass needed for realistic diamonds , but I know they are on the way.
Great Work Guys ! Looking good.

while waiting for dispersion and IOR I played with stereo, hope you are able to enjoy it, because I had to change the colors to red / blue for my glasses...
