Ray tracing has gained recent popularity due to the advancement of computer hardware capabilities. The algorithm is used as a rendering technique for computer graphics by tracing rays of light to determine the color of a single pixel, thus simulating the physical behavior of light. This study explores the performance differences between the ray tracing algorithm on the CPU and the GPU processor units. By using CUDA, NVIDIA’s platform for parallel programming, general-purpose programming could be utilized on the GPU and C++ for the CPU counterpart. By rendering different numbers of spheres in varying resolutions, the performance difference could be measured on the two devices and put against each other. From the data gathered, we could concl...
