Ray tracing is more computationally intensive than rasterization (which is used for video games) but is better at capturing phenomena like reflection and refraction. A simple raytracer can be written in a day, while complex ones requires advanced physics equations and statistical techniques. In this 90-minute talk, we'll cover enough material for you to build your own raytracer, and some more advanced features you could add to continue developing. Ray tracing lends itself to object-oriented programming so we'll also get some practice with typescript.</p> <p>Presented by PDX Code Guild Instructor Matthew Cooper</p> </div> <h3>Links</h3> <ul> <li><a class="url u-url" href="https://www.meetup.com/Portland-Programmer-Network/events/273667685/">Website</a></li> </ul> </div>
