# Raytracing
A CPU ray tracing library, written in C++, with a matrix representation of entities.
There are two technical parts:
- Ray tracing with shadows, ambient, diffuse (Lambert), specular (Phong), reflections, refractions (Snell-Descartes) with Schlick-Fresnel approximation and simple ambient occlusion implementation.
- C++ with super-sampling, gamma correction and multithreading image calculation.
## Getting the code
```bash
git clone --recursive git@github.com:florianvazelle/raytracing.git
```
## Quickstart
```
./setup.sh
```
## Building
### Build and run the standalone target
Use the following command to build and run the executable target.
```bash
cmake -Bbuild
cmake --build build
./build/bin/compute --help # or ./build/bin/raytracer
```
### Build and run test suite
Use the following commands from the project's root directory to run the test suite.
```bash
cmake -Bbuild -DRTX_WITH_APP=OFF
cmake --build build
./build/bin/rtx_test
```
