List of available Environment Shader presets. Environment shaders are used instead of surface shaders when a visible ray leaves the scene entirely without intersecting an object or when the maximum ray depth is reached. For example, an environment shader might evaluate a texture mapped on an imaginary infinite sphere enclosing the scene. Environment shaders can also be used to light a scene with a high dynamic range image.
