Raytracing in Python: Shading Reflection Refraction Fog and More!

The graphics in many modern games look very similar to real life. This is often because they are using something called ray tracing. In this video Ill show you how I created my own ray tracer in Python and how you can too! Ill give you an in-depth explanation about intersections shadows and highlights refraction reflection volumetric lighting and more as well as the potential problems you might encounter when making a ray tracer of your own. Timestamps: 00:20 Rays and Intersections 03:28 Spheres 03:47 Shadows and Highlights 06:20 Reflections and Refraction 08:17 Translucent Materials 08:32 Volumetric lighting I also made a short compilation of some outputs which you can see here: You can also find the full code in the GitHub-repository: Music: Deliberate Thought by Kevin MacLeod is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 licence.
