Raytracer in Rust, using https://raytracing.github.io/

Raytracer

This is a raytracer that is built following Peter Shirley's incredible book on ray tracing: Ray Tracing in One Weekend.

Instructions to run

cargo run > image_file.ppm

It is highly suggested that the raytracer is run in release mode, as it is incerdibly slow otherwise.

Future plans

• Implementing Perlin textures
• Implementing Quadrilaterals and light sources that will allow a Cornell Box
• (Unlikely) Implementing BVH to speed up the raytracer.
