•The basic principle of ray tracing is to create a graphic that depicts the image of a scene by considering how light travels in the real world. In this method, the processes follow the reverse of the path in the real world. In the real world, light rays emanate from a light source and illuminate objects. Terang is reflected from or passes through transparent objects. The reflected light hits our eyes or the camera lens.
Forward Ray Tracing is a model that assumes that light rays emanating from a light source travel in a straight line and are reflected or refracted by objects before reaching the eye. In the real world, only a small fraction of the billions of photons emitted from a light source reach the eye. When this model is simulated on a computer, a large number of unnecessary calculations will be performed for the photons that do not reach the eye. Therefore, it is very difficult to simulate the Forward Ray Tracing method on a computer.
In ray tracing tests, the intersection of the ray with the surface is investigated. If there is an intersection, a t value greater than 0 is returned. Otherwise, the t value is 0. Based on this calculated t value, the coordinates of the intersection point on the surface are determined. If the ray will be reflected or refracted from this intersection point and continue its path, the intersection point becomes the new starting point, i.e. R0. These rays are called secondary rays. Secondary rays are recalculated using a recursive algorithm that reaches the light source at the desired depth value.
