photon_tracer

multithreaded C++ raytracer.

readme

A raytracer written from scratch in C++. It traces light per-pixel to produce reflection, refraction, and soft shadows, and splits the frame across cores so rendering scales with the machine instead of pinning one thread.

signal log

• reflection, refraction, and soft shadows traced per-pixel.
• frame split across cores rather than rendered single-threaded.
• [ add a render time + sample count you are proud of ]
