miniRT

This project is an introduction to the beautiful world of Raytracing. Once completed we will be able to render simpleComputer-Generated-Images and we will never be afraid of implementing mathematical formulas again.

Introduction

The main goal of miniRT is to prove to ourself that we are able to implement any mathematics or physics formulas without being a mathematician, we will only implement the most basics ray tracing features here so just keep calm, take a deep breath and don’t panic! After this project we’ll be able to show off nice looking pictures.

How To Use

1. Clone this repo.
2. Run the make or make bonus (for rotation and translation with keyboard) command. ps : this project is only tested in MAC os, I don't know it's behavios in other os.
3. The programm takes a scene as an argument. Multiple scenes are directly available in the directory "./scenes/" .

   $ ./miniRT './scenes/file_name'
   

4. save flag

   $ ./miniRT './scenes/file_name' --save
   

5. Keyboard

• [r | t]: Rotation | Translation
• [x | y | z]: Rotation over axe [ x | y | z]
• [o | c | l]: Chosing [Object | Camera | Light]
• [Right/Left | Up/Down | W/S]: For moving
