Ray-tracing Stuff


The image above is a home-made ray-traced image. It's one of the 60 frames which together made up the QuickTime movie I made for our local Nuclear Theory Group. As mentioned in the credits section accompanying the movie, this image was rendered using POV-Ray, which is one of the ray-tracing programs available (and one of the very few that are free). To know more about POV-Ray, check out the on-line manual or the electronic magazine PovZine. For general info about ray-tracing, read the FAQ or try the newsgroup comp.graphics.raytracing. Good starting jump points are Yahoo and the Ray Tracing Home Page.
