Occluded/Unoccluded Color and AO Distance (CoronaAO as seen in the material editor)Ĭorona Ambient Occlusion (AO) – Parameters Example of a scene with and without Corona AO: Corona Renderer will take care of darkening concave areas without any special tweaks. Note: For the sake of realism and physical accuracy, we do not recommend using ambient occlusion in order to enhance shading in the whole scene. Corona AO can also be used to create advanced materials, such as rusted metal, worn wood, scratched paint, etc., or to provide "artistic" control over the overall scene appearance. By default, when used as a diffuse color, it will darken crevices and cavities of objects while also brightening flat and raised areas.
