Ray Tracer

This is a ray tracer implemented in Java. It allows to use a simple pre-defined language to define a scene as a file, and use it as an input to the ray tracer. The ray tracer will recreate the scene and save output image.

How to Use

Follow these steps:

1. Create a .txt file to describe the desired scene (world). For examples of some scene files, check the /examples directory. In general, all directions are described as a 3D vector, while all colors and lights are described as an RGB value.
2. Call the main application with the txt scene file as the input.

Beta

This software is not perfect and may not work properly (currently it is missing some advanced features).
