Title: Image rendering using ray-tracing
Inventor: COLIN JONATHAN HUGHES
IPC: G06T15/40
Filed: 2020-07-01
Abstract: Image rendering comprises generating (1100) a virtual scene comprising virtual resources, the resources being virtual objects and/or virtual light sources, and pre-processing (1110) the scene by (e.g. limited, using a lower density of rays) ray-tracing with respect to a virtual camera position to detect virtual resource(s) not required for (e.g. full) ray-tracing rendering of the image. The image is then rendered (1120) by ray-tracing from the virtual camera position, omitting ray-tracing for the image with respect to the detected superfluous (e.g. not visible) virtual resource(s). The detection may comprise establishing whether virtual resource(s) are visible from that camera position. Bounding Volume Hierarchies (BVH) may be generated for each virtual object, and intersection of nodes higher than object (leaf) nodes by rays from virtual light sources indicate that the objects within that node require full ray-tracing rendering. Light source culling and occlusion and frustrum culling is therefore efficiently performed during the pre-processing.
