Visualizing relativistic effects in spacetime

Ping-Kang Hsiung, Robert H. P. Dunn · 1989

We have developed an innovative ray-tracing algorithm to describe Relativistic Effects in SpaceTime (“REST”). Our algorithm, called REST-frame, simulates a generalized world in Spacetime and gives the fine details implicit in the Special Theory of Relativity that have not yet been made apparent. These novel simulations disclose the non-intuitive realm of Special Relativity and, by visualization means, advance beyond the findings of past revelations concerning relativistic effects.
