Efficient ray traced soft shadows using multi-frusta tracing
Ray tracing has long been considered to be superior to rasterization because its ability to trace arbitrary rays, allowing it to simulate virtually any physical light transport ef...

Fast Ray Sorting and Breadth-First Packet Traversal for GPU Ray Tracing
We present a novel approach to ray tracing execution on commodity graphics hardware using CUDA. We decompose a standard ray tracing algorithm into several data-parallel stages tha...

Multidimensional adaptive sampling and reconstruction for ray tracing
We present a new adaptive sampling strategy for ray tracing. Our technique is specifically designed to handle multidimensional sample domains, and it is well suited for efficientl...

Rendering Soft Shadows using Multilayered Shadow Fins
Generating soft shadows in real time is difficult. Exact methods (such as ray tracing, and multiple light source simulation) are too slow, while approximate methods often overesti...

Interactive Isosurface Ray Tracing of Time-Varying Tetrahedral Volumes
Abstract-- We describe a system for interactively rendering isosurfaces of tetrahedral finite-element scalar fields using coherent ray tracing techniques on the CPU. By employing s...
