Abstract

Ray tracing has been widely researched due to its ability to generate realistic images. However, the performance of current ray tracing algorithms is considerably slower than GPU-based rasterization algorithms, especially on dynamic scenes. In this paper we address the problem of efficient computation of bounding volume hierarchies (BVHs) of dynamic scenes for faster ray tracing.

Ray tracing deformable scenes using dynamic bounding volume hierarchies

The most significant deficiency of most of today's interactive ray tracers is that they are restricted to static walkthroughs. This restriction is due to the static nature of the acceleration structures used. While the best reported frame rates for ...

EGSR'07: Proceedings of the 18th Eurographics conference on Rendering Techniques

In this paper, we present a new algorithm for interactive rendering of animated scenes with Whitted Ray-Tracing, running on the GPU. We focus our attention on the secondary rays (the rays generated by one or more bounces on specular objects), and use ...
Ray tracing dynamic scenes using selective restructuring
EGSR'07: Proceedings of the 18th Eurographics conference on Rendering Techniques

We present a novel algorithm to selectively restructure bounding volume hierarchies (BVHs) for ray tracing dynamic scenes. We derive two new metrics to evaluate the culling efficiency and restructuring benefit of any BVH. Based on these metrics, we ...
