This is my ray tracer that I wrote while following The Ray Tracer Challenge!
This project didn't use any external library/crate, everything was done from scratch! With a high test coverge too :D
Brace yourself for a fun challenge: build a photorealistic 3D renderer from scratch!
It’s easier than you think. In just a couple of weeks, build a ray tracer that renders beautiful scenes with shadows, reflections, brilliant refraction effects, and subjects composed of various graphics primitives: spheres, cubes, cylinders, triangles, and more.
The scene used in the book cover!
To run it, do:
cargo run --bin {scene-name} | feh -
where the scene is one of
circle
clock
cover
cube
projectile
raytracer
scene
transperant
- Cube
- Cylinder
- Cone
- Planes
- Sphere
Any material can be formed with the following combination
color: Color,
/// Value between 0 and 1, default: 0.1
ambient: f64
/// Value between 0 and 1, default: 0.9
diffuse: f64
/// Value between 0 and 1, default: 0.9
specular: f64
/// Value between 10 and 200 work best,default: 200.0
/// no limits apart from `f64`
shininess: f64
/// Value Between 0 and 1.
/// 0 is non-reflective, 1 is a perfect mirror
reflective: f64
/// Transparency, 0 is opaque, 1 is (perfectly) transparent
transparency: f64
/// Refreactive Index
refractive_index: f64
/// Pattern
pattern: Pattern,Where Pattern can be any of:
/// Zebra like stripes
Stripped
/// Gradient with two colors
Gradient
/// Circlur Stripes
Ring
/// Checkers, like Chess, but in 3D space too
Checker
/// The Color is the Point
NoPatternYep, no external crates at all!
