OpenRT Gallery

The following gallery contains example images and movies for some of the projects that have been done so far with OpenRT. However, this list is by far not complete. Also see the publication list for related projects.
Please note that many of the newer projects here are currently submitted for publication.

OpenRT demo video

Feb 2003, Computer Graphics Group, Saarland University, (http://graphics.cs.uni-sb.de/).
This video features a collection of different clips providing an overview of the capabilities of the OpenRT interactive ray tracing system.

Improved Version of our Interactive Global Illumination System

Jan 2003, Computer Graphics Group, Saarland University, (http://graphics.cs.uni-sb.de/).
In its new version, the system not only supports programmable and procedural shaders (like Wood or Marble), tonemapping and antialiasing, but also offers much higher performance. While the old technique required to accumulate several frames to let the system converge for several seconds, the increased performance now allows to render even in high-quality settings at interactive rates.

For more details, see http://www.openrt.de/Gallery/IGI2/. You can also see a Video of the running system.

New Images from the "PowerPlant" scene

Jan 2003, Computer Graphics Group, Saarland University, (http://graphics.cs.uni-sb.de/). Now with three powerplants (total of 37.5 million triangles), and with the capability to interactively change parts of the model. Right: Now also with interactive global illumination.
