Abstract
There is provided a ray tracing device with improved performance. The ray tracing device includes a tree build unit (TBU) building a spatial partitioning structure; a ray tracing unit (RTU) performing ray tracing based on the spatial partitioning structure; and a controller controlling the balance between operating performances of the tree build unit and the ray tracing unit adaptively by monitoring load conditions of the corresponding units.

A ray tracing device with improved performance, the device comprising:
- a tree build unit (TBU) building a spatial partitioning structure;
- a ray tracing unit (RTU) performing ray tracing based on the spatial partitioning structure;
- and
- a controller controlling the balance between operating performances of the tree build unit and the ray tracing unit adaptively by monitoring load conditions of the corresponding units.
A ray tracing method with improved performance performed by a ray tracing device including a tree build unit (TBU), a ray tracing unit (RTU), and a controller, the method comprising:
- building a spatial partitioning structure by the tree build unit;
- performing ray tracing based on the spatial partitioning structure by the ray tracing unit;
- and
- controlling the balance between operating performances of the tree build unit and the ray tracing unit adaptively by monitoring load conditions of the corresponding units by the controller.
