Abstract: This article describes approaches to solve two drawbacks of ray-space representation: the large amount of data necessary to represent an object and the massive use of CPU to render an image.

In a groundbreaking mission, SpaceX Fram2 crew recreated Röntgen's X-ray experiment in space, imaging a hand and other body parts. This mission, supported by Chun Wang, conducted 22 research ...

Unfortunately, we still don’t have consumer-level PCs that can truly render ray-traced graphics at high framerates. Instead, we now have hardware that can cheat effectively. Ray tracing’s ...

The first-ever X-ray taken of an astronaut in space used new technology developed in Waterloo region. Startup KA Imaging's new X-ray detector was part of a mission to study Earth's polar regions ...

Load up a new tab or head to YouTube and search for "fake frames." You'll find dozens upon dozens of videos and articles ...

NVIDIA states that RT Cores will enhance in-game realism with "dynamic lighting and natural reflections," confirming that Switch 2 games will be able to include real-time ray-traced reflections ...

Astronauts on SpaceX's Fram2 mission have captured the first medical X-ray ever taken in space. The grayscale scan of a hand wearing a ring echoes Wilhelm Roentgen's original X-ray from 130 years ago.

It pays homage to the first X-ray ever taken, which was captured about 130 years ago. In 1895, when German physics professor Wihelm Röntgen was experimenting with cathode rays, he accidentally ...

As four space tourists orbited the north and south poles earlier this month and marvelled at the views of Earth, a group of Canadians celebrated an X-ray image taken aboard the spacecraft using ...

This mod, which uses screen-space lighting information to deliver ray-traced global illumination and ambient occlusion, offers an impressive look at what The Last of Us Part II Remastered with ...
