International audienceRay tracing is one of the most important rendering techniques used in computer graphics. However, two fundamental problems of classical ray tracers are aliasing (jaggies, disappearing small objects and small shadows) and important computational time. Many ways have been followed to solve these two problems. Some of them failed, others improve image quality and others optimize the computation time. In this paper, we present variants of ray tracing: solutions using only infinitesimal thick rays, solutions using volumetric rays called beams and solutions which mix these two types of rays. We propose two algorithms that occasionally use volumetric rays. One of them optimizes shadow determination and the other the visibilit...
