Primary LanguageOCaml

rayml

Example rendered scene

A raytracer written in OCaml. It supports diffuse("matte") and reflective("metallic") surfaces.

The design of the software roughly follows Peter Shirley's mini-book series Raytracing in One Weekend which presents a raytracer in C++. I've adopted the programming style to suit OCaml's functional style.

Usage

You need to have OCaml installed. Running make display will compile the program and renders the hard-coded scene displayed above.
