Homework 11 - Path Trace Dielectric Materials
This extension to my path tracer enables a user to define dielectric materials such that refraction may occur.
The images below show a generic use of the dielectric, by inserting several spheres within the cornell box with
transmissive properties. The index of refraction for the spheres increases from 1.2 to 1.6 as the balls get higher
in the air. The second image repeats this scene, however, it uses a refraction index that ranges between 1.4 and 1.5
for the different wavelengths of incoming light. The third image another use of the dielectric, to imitate a
fisheye lens. Here, the camera is flipped upside down and a refractive sphere is placed in front of it (between
the camera and the scene). After playing around with the size of the sphere, index of refraction, and the distance,
the fisheye lens was achieved.
