Abstract
Anamorphism requires that a viewer needs to have a certain position or use special devices to look at an image or object in order to see a recognisable picture. Anamorphic art has been around for centuries but it has always been difficult to create due to its complex mathematical calculations. With the advancement of modern technology, new methods to create such art have been created. One such method uses ray tracing to build anamorphic sculptures based on an object’s projection in a mirror or refraction through a transparent medium. Virtual Ray Tracer is a tool developed to teach ray tracing. Given its usefulness to students and the intriguing method to produce art described above, this paper explores the possibility of making a tool meant to teach the way anamorphic sculptures are constructed.
