fidelity, ray tracing-based rendering techniques, such as ray casting, recursive ray tracing, distribution ray tracing, photon mapping and path tracing, are...

Look up ray tracing in Wiktionary, the free dictionary. Ray tracing is a method for calculating the path of waves or particles through a system. The method...

Ray-tracing hardware is special-purpose computer hardware designed for accelerating ray tracing calculations. The problem of rendering 3D graphics can...

effects that have to be specifically added to other methods (conventional ray tracing or scanline rendering), such as soft shadows, depth of field, motion...

In physics, ray tracing is a method for calculating the path of waves or particles through a system with regions of varying propagation velocity, absorption...

gaming. Nvidia RTX features hardware-enabled real-time ray tracing. Historically, ray tracing had been reserved to non-real time applications (like CGI...

Distributed ray tracing, also called distribution ray tracing and stochastic ray tracing, is a refinement of ray tracing that allows for the rendering...

Sphere tracing, the function estimates a distance to step next. Ray marching is also used in physics simulations as an alternative to ray tracing where...

called distributed ray tracing, or distribution ray tracing because it samples rays from probability distributions. Distribution ray tracing can also render...

of geometric objects efficiently, such as in collision detection and ray tracing. Although wrapping objects in bounding volumes and performing collision...
