Realtime Ray Tracing: IBM QS21 and Sony PS3



The movie above illustrates a model of Rome running in realtime and raytraced. The model is running on running on the IBM QS21 Cell/B.E. Blades using iRT ray tracer with display output via a Playstation 3.

Anyone who knows how slow raytracing can be out of the standard 3D packages should be pretty impressed by this...
