S-ray is a free photorealistic renderer based on monte carlo ray tracing. It is capable of simulating all interactions of light with the environment, or L(D|S)`*`E paths in path notation. What this means is that it can simulate global illumination effects such as indirect diffuse illumination, ca...

This application is used to evaluate a new technique for Photon Mapping on a GPU using nVidia's CUDA. The application implements the traditional kd-tree approach and compares it to a new technique which should utilize the massive parallel computation power of a GPU more efficiently. This project is ...

Distrubuted Ray Tracing Engine 4 Fun

kdtree is a simple, easy to use C library for working with kd-trees. Kd-trees are an extension of binary search trees to k-dimensional data. They facilitate very fast searching, and nearest-neighbor queries. This particular implementation is designed to be efficient and very easy to use. It is...

Simple Raytracer that uses kd-trees and photon mapping, the input files are in XML, the models are Maya obj files. The Raytracer also supports texture.
