We present a novel and practical approach for image-based relighting that employs the lights available in a regular room to acquire the reflectance field of an object. The lighting basis includes diverse light sources such as the house lights and the natural illumination coming from the windows. Once the data is captured, we homogenize the reflectance field to take into account the variety of light source colours to minimise the tone difference in the reflectance field. Additionally, we measure the room dark level corresponding to a small amount of global illumination with all lights switched off and blinds drawn. The dark level, due to some light leakage through the blinds, is removed from the individual local lighting basis conditions and employed as an additional global lighting basis. Finally we optimize the projection of a desired lighting environment on to our room lighting basis to get a close approximation of the environment with our sparse lighting basis. We achieve plausible results for diffuse and glossy objects that are qualitatively similar to results produced with dense sampling of the reflectance field including using a light stage and we demonstrate effective relighting results in two different room configurations. We believe our approach can be applied for practical relighting applications with general studio lighting.
