Practical Tips for Optimizing Ray Tracing

Nvidia

To achieve high efficiency with ray tracing, you must build a pipeline that scales well at every stage. To achieve high efficiency with ray tracing, you must build a pipeline that scales well at every stage. For ray tracing, visibility can be estimated directly based on the number of rays hitting each object.
