This module is designed for users who want to learn how to create highly realistic images by simulating the physical behavior of light. You will explore the principles of ray tracing, including how light interacts with surfaces to produce effects such reflections and refractions. Each topic includes theoretical material and practical tasks that can be completed directly on the website.
What you'll learn
- algorithms for detecting intersections between rays and surfaces
- simulating how light bounces off surfaces and passes through transparent materials.
- statistical methods for simulating complex lighting scenarios (Monte Carlo Methods).
- techniques to remove noise from rendered images (Denoising).
Why is this important?
Ray tracing is a powerful technique for generating photorealistic images in computer graphics. By accurately simulating the behavior of light, developers can create scenes with unparalleled realism.
