A Ray-tracing Framework for Science and Engineering

Project description

A ray-tracing framework for optical/non-optical physics simulations.

The aims of the Raysect project are as follows:

  • develop a ray-tracer that is easy for scientists and engineers to use and extend

  • the raytracer must be robust and high precision (double floating point throughout)

The general development philosophy is ease of use > performance, but performance is not to be ignored.

Please note, this code is currently alpha quality and subject to significant change.

Raysect currently only supports Linux. Windows support will come at a later stage.

Please note, for legal reasons we require the copyright to any contributed code to be passed to the Raysect project.
