Developers can apply now for access to RTX Direct Illumination (RTXDI), the latest advancement in real-time ray tracing. REAL TIME RAY TRACING MADE EASIER RTX Direct Illumination (RTXDI) Imagine adding millions of dynamic lights to your game environments without worrying about performance or resource constraints.

NVIDIA set out to redefine real-time rendering through AI-based super resolution — rendering a fraction of the original pixels and then using AI to reconstruct sharp, higher resolution images. With DLSS, users can maximize ray-tracing settings and increase output resolution.

To achieve high efficiency with ray tracing, you must build a pipeline that scales well at every stage. To achieve high efficiency with ray tracing, you must build a pipeline that scales well at every stage. For ray tracing, visibility can be estimated directly based on the number of rays hitting each object.

Six years ago, real-time ray tracing was seen as a pipe dream. Six years ago, real-time ray tracing was seen as a pipe dream. Working on Project Sol was an exhilarating experience, especially because it was our first dive into developing real-time content with consumer GPUs supporting real-time ray tracing.

For example, a shader can use warp shuffle instructions to exchange data between threads in a warp without going through shared memory, which is especially valuable in pixel shaders where there is no shared memory. This example, on the other hand, can be plugged into virtually any pixel shader, and the effect is obvious. x, u1 mov r3.yz,

A GPU Trace capture. A – Unit throughputs, B – SM occupancy NVIDIA Nsight Graphics offers the GPU Trace feature (Figure 2), which provides detailed performance information of various GPU units sampled across the frame. Low resolution usually means less pixel warps and thus more idle time for the SMs and more overlap potential.

Annotations by Edu Martin from their blog ' Lighting Pixels ') Point lighting Point lights (sometimes called omni lights) are similar to spotlights, but emit light in all directions from a small, single point — like the light you get from candles, fairy lights, or a firefly. Three-point lighting in action in Disney's Tangled.
