Real-Time Radiosity Rendering
Radiosity is a special case of the global illumination problem, in which all surfaces are perfectly diffuse reflectors (Lambertian). This means stuff like specular reflection, glossy reflection, transmission etc.. doesn't have to be dealt with. HL2 uses this feature to create lightmaps. This is called Static Radiosity Rendering, which renders light sources and shadows on a image and places it over a specific face, creating a realistic look as seen in HL2. RT Radiosity is where the GPU renders the radiosity of lighting on the fly without the process of Vrad. This will allow the ability to have realtime shadows and lighting for the Source Engine.
