Ray-Traced Reflections in Real-Time Using Heuristic Based Hybrid Rendering

We present a new method for real-time rendering of multiple recursions of reflections and refractions. The method uses the strengths of real-time ray tracing for objects close to the camera, by storing them in a per-frame constructed bounding volume ...

We present a real-time algorithm called compensated ray marching for rendering of smoke under dynamic low-frequency environment lighting. Our approach is based on a decomposition of the input smoke animation, represented as a sequence of volumetric ...

Accurately rendering occlusions is required when ray-tracing objects to achieve more realistic rendering of scenes. Indeed, soft phenomena such as shadows and ambient occlusion can be achieved with stochastic ray tracing techniques. However, computing ...
