Abstract
Ray tracing is at the core of simulating light effects in computer graphics. Due to ray tracing’s geometrical and computational complexity, students can find it hard to understand. Interactive and visual demonstrations of ray tracing can aid students in understanding it. This project extends upon Virtual Ray Tracer (VRT), developed to help with ray tracing education. Acceleration data structures play a crucial role in ray tracing by reducing the number of intersection tests between rays and objects. Two of these data structures will be added on top of VRT; axis-aligned bounding boxes and octrees. Through these, the ray tracer will be accelerated and tutorial levels teaching them will be developed. Based on the design and implementation, the thesis aims to answer the following research question: What is the best way to visualize ray tracing acceleration data structures and their use cases in VRT?
