Comparison Feature for Sanctuary Raytracer

Comparison Feature for Sanctuary Raytracer I am currently fixing a bug with the KDTree implementation in my raytracer, which makes some triangles disappear under certain angles. I like these hard to spot bugs to stay fixed, so I decided to automate the process of finding them and inspecting them. When run in “comparison” mode, “Sanctuary” compares its output with a known good render, residing in a “compare” folder. If a known good render of the scene exists, the images are compared and an image diff is generated....

How I started with Computer Graphics

My Entry into Ray Tracing: “Sanctuary” I embarked on my ray tracing journey with the creation of the “Sanctuary” raytracer, a project born out of the Chaos Camp ray tracing course. Here’s a video showcasing what “Sanctuary” can do: Watch the video Looking ahead to 2024, the plan is to accelerate “Sanctuary” with CUDA, introduce a graphical interface (as of now, it outputs directly to a .png file), and add some rasterization capabilities....
