Here is the first ray tracing book to focus on object-oriented methods that can greatly enhance both the speed of processing and the quality of the resulting graphics. Readers will find a brief introduction to ray tracing and background on advanced topics such as acceleration techniques, texture-mapping, and constructive solid geometry. They'll also get a "User's Manual" guide for the ray tracing class library, with code examples for both basic and sophisticated ray tracing problems.

Synopsis:

Ray tracing is a technique for creating a two-dimensional picture of a three-dimensional world. This introduction to the field concentrates on the state-of-the-art algorithms and applications of ray tracing that use object-orientation. It describes various advanced ray tracing techniques.
