The use of [[high-dynamic-range imaging]] (HDRI) in computer graphics was introduced by Greg Ward in 1985 with his open-source [[Radiance (software)|Radiance]] rendering and ''lighting simulation'' software which created the first file format to retain a high-dynamic-range image. HDRI languished for more than a decade, held back by limited computing power, storage, and capture methods. Not until recently{{when|date=July 2017}} has the technology to put HDRI into practical use been developed.<ref name=reinhard1>{{cite book
