The possible applications of Ray-Tracing are paramount. Mimicing the paths that light takes in nature Ray-Tracing is able to realistically simulate lighting situations, relfections or refractions. Thus it is the optimal tool for visualizing many computer models.

Moreover in Ray-Tracing the quality of the output picture depends linearly on the performance of the Ray-Tracing System. In addition the scene complexity does not affect the rendering speed as much as in today's common rendering systems. Ray-Tracing is output sensitive meaning that you only pay for the things you see.

The ability of Ray-Tracing to reliably simulate lighting and the inherent scalabilty make it the ideal tool for visualizing diverse scenarios.

Years of research, a continuing in depth analysis and adaption of the Ray-Tracing process and the invention of new techniques and algorithms led to astonishing new realtime applications made possible through Ray-Tracing.
