RGKrt

Photorealistic physically-based renderer I initially wrote for photorealistic graphics course and improved afterwards.

Main features:

  • Bidirectional path tracing
  • Uses efficient data structures
  • Multisampling using various sample generators
  • Depth of field
  • Various BRDFs built-in: Phong, Cook-Torr, Beckmann, GGX
  • Refractions, reflections, caustics
  • Areal (surface) lights
  • Environmental map support
  • Linearly Transformed Cosines
  • Supports bumpmaps and normal maps
  • Non-interactive runtime (batch processing)
  • Simple and transparent input file format
  • Preview mode, very basic support for animations
  • HDR output in openEXR format

Currently it runs only on Linux. Source code is available on Github.

RGKrt is written in C++14 and it uses assimp, png++, glm, libjpeg, ctpl and openEXR libraries.
