Cyclops materials reflectance question

Hi,

I’ve been testing Cyclops for sDA analysis, and I’m encountering issues when trying to customize materials. In most cases, the Specularity and Roughness are set to 0, but I need to specify the Reflectance instead.
I noticed there isn’t an input parameter for Reflectance in the Material component.
Is the “Base Colour” parameter defining the Reflectance value for such material? How can i know what colour to use if for instance I want to get a reflectance value of 0.5?

I’m not sure if that’s the correct approach.

Can anyone help with this?
Thank you!

Hi @Giulio,

You are correct, the ”Base Colour” of the material will be the reflectance. It is a gradient type parameter but you can equally just input a single colour. If you want to make it with specific reflectance for all channels in the range 0-1 you can use the Colour HSV component like below.
