In 2018, with the release of NVIDIA’s RTX series GPUs, real-time ray tracing finally became accessible to game developers, content creators, and consumers. It is a technology that will forever change graphics processing.
To help developers navigate this new technology, a wide-ranging book on the topic is being published early this year: Ray Tracing Gems.
We have some great news: Readers of NVIDIA’s Dev News Center get early access to the text, at no cost! NVIDIA will be distributing the book for free in its entirety, as a series of seven PDFs. Every few days, a new section of the book will be made available.
