- Light intensity is the brightness of the light source
- Angle of Incidence is the angle at which light rays strikes a surface and it can effect how brightly an object appears to be illuminated.
- Radiosity refers to the light that is reflected off objects that illuminates other objects as well
- Ambient light is the cumulative effect of all the light bouncing off all the objects in an area.
