First iteration of a simplistic ray tracer render engine written in C++ and running on the CPU, following the book Computer graphics from scratch, available at: https://www.gabrielgambetta.com/computer-graphics-from-scratch/ .
The code (main.cpp) can be compiled using any C++ compiler and linking the gdi32.lib library.
When executed, the rendered should produce an image representing the default test scene, composed of 3 spheres (one red, one green and one blue) on a grey ground.
This project is far from being finished and many features need to be added, such as:
- Seperate the project into different files
- Properly working shadows for all types of lights (point and directional)
- Specular highlighting
- Reflections
- Transparency and refraction
- Other primitive objects (box, triangle...)
- And more...
