A simple script to animate a ray traced scene using python. This code was adapted from the extremely helpful Medium Post written by Omar Aflak. It is worth a 10 minute read to understand the basics of Ray Tracing. I adapted this code to be object oriented and include animation features.

To run the code just run the following command from inside the repo:
python raytrace.py
You can modify the initial conditions, resolution, and other physical parameters to your liking. Running the base file should get you something that looks like this:
