2D CPU Ray Tracer

This 2D Ray Tracer was developed as a course project at BUAS during Block C of Year 1. The entire rendering pipeline runs on the CPU in C++. To demonstrate the dynamic lighting capabilities, I made a small snake spinoff on top of the engine. Goals and Motivations Technical Goals: Explore fundamental ray-tracing concepts such as intersection checks, shadows, lighting. Gain experience on CPU based renderers while improving C++ skills. Get a basic understanding of optimization techniques in ray tracing Challenges and solutions

rVox

Custom voxel engine project made during Block B in Year 2 at BUAS. The engine is made in C++ and OpenGL with OpenCL for the rendering/compute pipeline. Lighting is being calculated per voxel using software ray tracing inside a OpenCL kernel.

Wexel engine

Custom voxel engine made as a self study project with a friend in 32 hours of tracked work. Made in WebGPU and javascript+HTML, rendering a chunk of 128x128x128 voxels inside a rasterized box, fully ray traced shadows and rendering with basic PBR support.
