Abstract:
The present disclosure describes a new global illumination ray tracing, applied to augmented reality and virtual reality. The Acceleration Structures of prior art are replaced by a new and novel device—a Dynamically Aligned Structure (DAS), a means for carrying out the intersection between secondary rays and scene geometry in large groups of rays, gaining high speed and lowering computational complexity. Its reduced power consumption is suitable to consumer level computing devices.

Claim (Index 1):
A system for ray tracing an augmented object in a three-dimensional scene, utilizing a graphics pipeline, the system comprises:\n at least one graphics processor with memory, at least one general purpose processor with memory, geometric data base of the three-dimensional scene, cluster of existing hit points, render target memory; wherein a sub-scene can be arbitrarily chosen as part of the said three-dimensional scene, and in runtime,\n a. graphics processor shoots primary rendering projections, generating a cluster of primary hit points; and \n b. a reference point for secondary rendering projections is set; and \n c. a secondary rendering projection is repeated multiple times, when each time:\n i. secondary rays are generated utilizing the secondary rendering projection, wherein the secondary rendering projection is shot from vicinity of the reference point, through the cluster of the primary hit points, generating render target texture of the sub-scene; and \n ii. intersections of the secondary rays with the sub-scene are sought; and \n iii. the intersections are saved for next generation of secondary rays; and \n iv. the light values are sampled at the intersection points; and \n v. the sampled light values are fed back to the primary hit points; \n \n d. the sampled light values are aggregated and processed for the primary hit points; and \n e. the processing results are converged into image pixels.
