Book Description

This Open Access book is a must-have for anyone interested in real-time rendering. Ray Tracing is the holy grail of gaming graphics, simulating the physical behavior of light to bring real-time, cinematic-quality rendering to even the most visually intense games.

Ray tracing is also a fundamental algorithm used for architecture applications, visualization, sound simulation, deep learning, and more.

What you'll learn:

  • The latest ray tracing techniques for developing real-time applications in multiple domains
  • Case studies from developers and studios who have shipped products that use real-time ray tracing.
  • Guidance, advice and best practices for rendering applications with various GPU-based ray tracing APIs (DirectX Raytracing, Vulkan Ray Tracing)
  • High performance graphics for 3D graphics, virtual reality, animation, and more
