A simple raytracer, built following The Raytracer Challenge.
Implemented from scratch with zero external dependencies (except for test helpers).
Current progress: it can render a simple scene with spheres, stripe patterns and shadows.
This project requires rust nightly.
Run an example with:
cargo run --release --example patternsThe rendered image will be saved in the examples/out/ directory in the PPM format.
- There is no concept of tuple: points and vector have their own types
- Shading supports multiple sources of light
- Matrices and matrix operations are implemented via const generics (where possible)
