The third argument to the rtDeclareVariable macro, called the semantic name, is used to bind these variables to the right places in the system. There is nothing special about the variable names shading_normal and prd_radiance. More information on the two other elements of this structure will be shown later. In this case, we will write a float3 color to a portion of that structure called result. This is an instance of a user-defined structure that carries data associated with each ray. The resulting color is written to another variable called prd_radiance. Because this variable will be shared between multiple programs, it must be declared in the following special way: rtDeclareVariable(float3, The intersection programs for the box and for the floor (not shown here refer to the SDK for their code) will both compute this variable when an intersection is found. The program above refers to a variable named shading_normal. Prd_radiance.result = normalize(rtTransformNormal( The resulting (x,y,z) vector is interpreted directly as a color and deposited into the payload associated with the ray. This program is a normal shader - it transforms the object normal into world space and scales it so that each component lies between 0 and 1. In this tutorial, we bind one simple closest hit program to each object in the scene. The user can create multiple closest hit programs and bind each to objects in the scene, so that different objects may have different appearances.

Typically the purpose of the closest hit program is to determine the color of the intersection point. It is executed whenever OptiX finds the closest intersection between a ray and an object.

The most common program type in OptiX is the closest hit program. More advanced rendering techniques and scientific computing with OptiX will also not be covered here. This tutorial is intended only to get you started with OptiX advanced features such as visit programs and acceleration structures can be found in other SDK samples.

The complete source code for both the CUDA C and host API portions is included in the SDK. This tutorial focuses on the CUDA C programming mechanism and does not describe how the host API is used to set up the objects.

In this section, we discuss each of these stages and show programs for both shading and intersection. The sample consists of eleven stages, each stage adding a new effect.

The OptiX SDK provides a source code sample, tutorial, that demonstrates how to implement several basic ray tracing effects, from trivially simple to moderately complex.
