Soft Shadow Rendering

Soft Shadow Rendering is a rendering technique in computer graphics that generates shadows with gradual transitions between light and dark regions by simulating the spatial extent of real-world light sources, thereby distinguishing it from hard shadow methods that produce abrupt, binary occlusion patterns.
