An Introduction to Ray tracing. The Morgan Kaufmann Series in Computer Graphics
Elsevier Science and Technology, June 1989, Pages: 368
The creation of ever more realistic 3-D images is central to the development of computer graphics. The ray tracing technique has become one of the most popular and powerful means by which photo-realistic images can now be created. The simplicity, elegance and ease of implementation makes ray tracing an essential part of understanding and exploiting state-of-the-art computer graphics.
An Introduction to Ray Tracing develops from fundamental principles to advanced applications, providing 'how-to' procedures as well as a detailed understanding of the scientific foundations of ray tracing. It is also richly illustrated with four-color and black-and-white plates. This is a book which will be welcomed by all concerned with modern computer graphics, image processing, and computer-aided design.
Key Features
- Provides practical 'how-to' information
- Contains high quality color plates of images created using ray tracing techniques
- Progresses from a basic understanding to the advanced science and application of ray tracing
