Distributed Ray Tracing In An Open Source Environment (Work In Progress) Gunnar Johansson∗

Figure 1: Network distributed rendering of a scene with simulated depth of field. Left: The partitioning of the scene and the node assignment is shown, the grey scale denotes complexity of the rendering measured in time spent per pixel. Right: The ray traced final image, note that a large amount of samples per pixel are needed to sufficiently sample this scene (512 rays per pixel). Below: Bar-chart depicting the loa
