The winners were selected by the committee consisting of the Rainbow group members. Raytracing competition The images are rendered with own ray tracer, written in Java, completed as a part of Tick 1 assignment. The rules for the rendering competitions were: The ray tracer used to render the scene can include only the elements covered in Tick 1 and Tick 1* descriptions. The only allowed objects are planes and spheres. The XML scene description can be manually designed but it can also be procedurally generated. 1st Place: Joe O'Connor 2nd Place: Krzysztof Rymski 3rd Place: Radzim Sendyka Honourable mention: Hannah Lord Honourable mention: Tom Cusack Honourable mention: Max Kaufmann Animation competition The animations were created with own OpenGL code, which was a part of Tick 2 submission. The code was rendering textured cubes, all organized in a scene graph. The goal was to create an interesting animation that would utilize the techniques covered in the lectures. 1st Place: Brendan Coll Your browser does not support the video tag.
