  2. Ray tracing (graphics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ray_tracing_(graphics)

    This recursive ray tracing of reflective colored spheres on a white surface demonstrates the effects of shallow depth of field, "area" light sources, and diffuse interreflection. (c. 2008) In 3D computer graphics, ray tracing is a technique for modeling light transport for use in a wide variety of rendering algorithms for generating digital images.

  3. Ray casting - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ray_casting

    Ray-cast image of idealized universal joint with shadow. Ray casting is the methodological basis for 3D CAD/CAM solid modeling and image rendering. It is essentially the same as ray tracing for computer graphics where virtual light rays are "cast" or "traced" on their path from the focal point of a camera through each pixel in the camera sensor to determine what is visible along the ray in the ...

  4. List of ray tracing software - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_ray_tracing_software

    Ray tracing is a technique that can generate near photo-realistic computer images. A wide range of free software and commercial software is available for producing these images. This article lists notable ray-tracing software.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Rendering_techniques...

    English: A 3D rendered image using ray tracing, rendered by the POV-Ray program. The scene uses very simple lighting, and uniform background colors, to make it easier to interpret differences in global illumination. A relatively low resolution mesh was used (some quality issues could be fixed by using a more detailed mesh).

  7. Volume ray casting - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Volume_ray_casting

    The technique of volume ray casting can be derived directly from the rendering equation.It provides results of very high quality rendering. Volume ray casting is classified as an image-based volume rendering technique, as the computation emanates from the output image and not the input volume data, as is the case with object-based techniques.

  8. Global illumination - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Global_illumination

    Global illumination [1] (GI), or indirect illumination, is a group of algorithms used in 3D computer graphics that are meant to add more realistic lighting to 3D scenes. Such algorithms take into account not only the light that comes directly from a light source (direct illumination), but also subsequent cases in which light rays from the same source are reflected by other surfaces in the ...
