Real-time Ray-Tracer

Solo Academic project.
Developed in the class-provided engine, built with C++ and Vulkan API.
Rendering tech demo.

-Use Monte-Carlo integration & importance sampling to calculate lights from infinite directions with acceptable performance.
-Apply next event estimation in light convoluting iteration to get acceptable output faster.
-Cache & accumulate the last frame’s color, normal, and depth buffers and reuse them.
-Denoise scene by À-Trous filter with edge & normal detecting algorithm.
