Abstract:

• Quick launch: not yet ready for easy use
• Download: git clone https://github.com/guyver2/RayTracer.git

Introduction:

My modest attempt at ray tracing.

• Current features include :
  • Discrete and area light sources
  • Monte-Carlo ray sampling
  • Difuse shadows
  • Mirrors

Installation:

• Requirements:
  • OpenCV, Eigen
  • git clone https://github.com/guyver2/RayTracer.git

Reference image:

First, not my result but the reference image I'm targeting

Results so far:

Color image with monte carlo sampling, spherical objects and reflections (ball and back wall).

Color image with monte carlo sampling and spherical objects.

Color image with monte carlo sampling for ray bouncing and area light.

Color image with ray bouncing once in 100 random directions

Color image with single ray and light atenuation

Freak show:

Every rendering project is subject to some amazing failures, here is my modest contribution.
