Recursive Ray Tracer with Blinn-Phong Model
Implemented a recursive ray tracer utilizing the Blinn-Phong reflection model. The project involved rendering scenes with shadow rays, ambient light, reflection, fresnel, and transmission effects.
Key Features:
- Utilized the Blinn-Phong reflection model to simulate diffuse, specular, and ambient reflection.
- Implemented shadow rays to simulate occlusion and realistic lighting.
- Incorporated reflection, fresnel, and transmission effects for reflective and transparent surfaces.
- Applied recursion in the ray tracing algorithm to approximate surface interactions with light.
Tools Used:
- Blender Cycles rendering engine.
- Python
