Captured Data for Vaulted Ceiling:
orange line 
The data was captured by the Computer Graphics Group at the Department of Computer Science,
Yale University. You are free to use this dataset for research purposes, only. Without permission from Yale University, this data cannot be incorporated into a larger database, which is then publicly distributed.

The data was captured in the lobby area of the Mechanical Engineering Department building (known as Mason Lab) at Yale University. The tiled, vaulted ceiling was designed by Guastavino. The main challenge in this dataset is the spatially, temporally, and spectrally varying illumination. The spatial variations can be quite significant for the areas illuminated by the spot lights, while the spectral variations arise from the multiple types of light sources that range from fluorescent to incandescent to daylight.
