cbvh_raytrace

This is the core repository for cooperation RT project. Originally commits are based on several open source repositories. They are:

• https://github.com/msu-graphics-group/LiteMath
• https://github.com/msu-graphics-group/scenes
• https://github.com/Ray-Tracing-Systems/HydraCore

Repository content

The repository consists of:

• 'core' directory -- implements Ray Tracing on CPU
  • 'core/builders' -- CPU and GPU based builders
    • 'core/builders/cbvh.h' -- API for builders
    • 'core/builders/lbvh.h' -- API for lbvh builder
    • 'core/builders_tests' -- some internals tets for CPU builders
• 'examples' which uses RT implemantation for testing and other purposes;
  • 'examples/01_eye_rays' -- implementation of ray tracing for primary rays
  • 'examples/02_rtao' -- implementation of ray tracing for Ray Traced Ambient Occlusion

Add your own RT algorithm

1. Add your own implementation of 'ISceneObject' interface ('CrossRT.h') in some file (lets call it "MyRT.cpp");
2. Create factory function 'ISceneObject* CreateMyRT(const char* a_implName)' that should return a pointer to your implementation;
3. Add declaration of your function 'CreateMyRT' inside FactoryRT.cpp;
4. Add check for you class name inside 'CreateSceneRT' function in FactoryRT.cpp;
5. You are done!

Add your own GI/RT sample

1. Add your own implementation of 'IRenderer' interface ('IRenderer.h') in some file (lets call it "MyRenderer.cpp");
2. Create factory function 'IRenderer* CreateMyRenderer(const char* a_implName)' that should return a pointer to your implementation;
3. Add declaration of your function 'CreateMyRenderer' inside RenderFactory.cpp;
4. Add check for you class name inside 'CreateRender' function in RenderFactory.cpp;
5. You are done!
