APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR RAY-TRACING USING MULTI-LEVEL KERNEL

摘要

PURPOSE: A ray tracing device and method thereof which uses a multi-level kernel are provided to reduce the generation of an idle code and to rapidly perform ray tracing by processing a kernel which is generated by level. CONSTITUTION: A common operation processing unit(210) performs a common operation about all pixels through an initialization kernel. A determining unit(220) determines the presence of a pixel. An addition operation processing unit(230) generates a new kernel about a pixel that is necessary for addition operation. The common operation allocates one core by pixel.
