Description: A ray tracer distributed as C source, supporting almost every Unix version, Windows NT and Mac OSX.
Tachyon Parallel / Multiprocessor Ray Tracing System Tachyon Parallel / Multiprocessor These pages contain information about my work in parallel rendering. I've been developing a parallel ray tracing library named Tachyon, for use on distributed memory parallel computers, shared memory computers, and clusters of workstations. Tachyon supports MPI for distributed memory parallel computers, threads for shared memory machines, and can support both simultaneously for clusters of shared memory machines. Tachyon has been selected for inclusion in the SPEC MPI2007 benchmark suite. Tachyon supports the typical ray tracer features, most of the common geometric primitives, shading and texturing modes, etc. It also supports less common features such as HDR image output, ambient occlusion lighting, and support for various triangle mesh and volumetric texture formats beneficial for molecular visualization (e.g. rendering
