Real Time Ray-Tracing (aka SHINY OBJECTS)

One part of this title will excite one type of demographic, the other part another demographic - and both refer to the same thing.

Current focus of interest for the last week or so.

I have my reasons - I will go far as to say that I grabbed code from here (awesome stuff) and have been playing with it to better understand this branch of computer graphics.

I did some optimization (or cutting corners, depending on how you look at it...) to get the scene to run faster.

Also a related site, from the same author, that is very optimized and much more developed:
