Ray tracing for HoloVizio light field displays
Oleksii Doronin, Attila Barsi, Peter Andras Kara, Maria G. Martini · 2017
Ray tracing is a well-known method of virtual 3D scene visualization. Nowadays it is mostly used for the rendering of photo-realistic static pictures for conventional 2D displays. In this paper, we describe the implementation of a ray tracing algorithm for a specific type of 3D rendering system, namely for the HoloVizio horizontally parallax light field display. We discuss the difficulties of the implementation of ray tracing for such systems, together with their solutions, as well as the benefits that could not apply to conventional 2D rendering systems.
