# nanoraytracer

A simple recursive raytracer written in C++. Supports shadows, reflections, diffuse/specular lighting and sphere/triangle primitives.

make nanoraytracer

./nanoraytracer 

```

See [demo/](demo/) for an example and info on specification of the input scenefile.

## Roadmap

- **LVL 0**

  - Add **circle** primitive

  - Create demo gif to showcase project

- **LVL 1**

  - Port from Makefile to CMake to enable cross-platform build

  - Anti-Aliasing

  - Add Logging, Progress Bar, Profiling

  - Support Refraction/Transparency

  - Parallelize with OpenMP / OpenCL

- **LVL 2**

  - Enable loading of arbitrary mesh file

  - Migrate to better representation of scene (yaml? XML?)

  - Path Tracing
