Ray tracing software :
The calculation principle of these programs is based on the intersection between the ray (characterized by the 2 components of its wave vector) and the nearest surface. A calculation is then performed to find the new wave vector using Descartes' laws after reflection and/or refraction on the surface, up to the next nearest surface encountered. Here are...
