Ray Tracing Gems Free on Google Play

<p> A few weeks after <em>Ray Tracing Gems</em> became available for free on <a href=http://www.amazon.com/dp/B07P5QV1Z5 rel="external nofollow">Kindle</a>, the book is now free on <a href="https://play.google.com/store/books/details/Eric_Haines_Ray_Tracing_Gems?id=MNqRDwAAQBAJ" rel="external nofollow">Google Play</a>. From the book description: </p> <blockquote class=ipsQuote data-ipsquote> <div class=ipsQuote_citation> Quote </div> <div class="ipsQuote_contents ipsClearfix"> <p> This book is a must-have for anyone serious about rendering in real time. With the announcement of new ray tracing APIs and hardware to support them, developers can easily create real-time applications with ray tracing as a core component. As ray tracing on the GPU becomes faster, it will play a more central role in real-time rendering. Ray Tracing Gems provides key building blocks for developers of games, architectural applications, visualizations, and more. Experts in rendering share their knowledge by explaining everything from nitty-gritty techniques that will improve any ray tracer to mastery of the new capabilities of current and future hardware. </p> <p> What you'll learn: </p> <ul> <li> The latest ray tracing techniques for developing real-time applications in multiple domains </li> <li> Guidance, advice, and best practices for rendering applications with Microsoft DirectX Raytracing (DXR) </li> <li> How to implement high-performance graphics for interactive visualizations, games, simulations, and more </li> </ul> </div> </blockquote> <p><br></p>
