Description: An interactive GPU path tracer written in GLSL. Uses physically-based techniques described in PBRT (Physically Based Rendering, 3rd Edition). The main render loop iterates through a maximum number of bounces per fragment, attenuating ray throughput at each interaction. Additionally, render passes are summed each iteration to produce an image that converges, otherwise it would only display a single iteration. Unfortunately, I am not able to share the code for this project, but I have attached some more renders below:

Features:

• Full Lighting Integrator (global illumination)
• Diffuse, specular, and transmissive materials
• Signed distance functions for rendering shapes
• Environment lighting
• Procedurally-generated textures (Worley, Perlin, FBM)
• Albedo and normal mapping
• Thin lens camera/depth of field
• QT GUI elements to change focal distance and lens radius
