= Homework 1 = This is my first homework submission. Here you'll find both a .rar file containing the required material, and also what extra work I've done. == Extra 1 - photon mapping == Instead of doing the suggested inter-surface reflections using photon mapping, I decided to try out the much more spectacular-looking caustics effects. I switched to a near-perfectly transmissive glass material, and altered the scene settings to facilitate my objective. === Result === This is the final result, using 500k photons for caustics, and 20k each for the direct and indirect maps. The algorithm has converged to a pretty believable image. See below for some intermediate steps. === Intermediate 1 === Using only 10k photons for caustics, and none for the other maps.
