====================

OpenCL wavefront path tracer
--------------

![Country Kitchen](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/harskish/fluctus/master/gallery/kitchen2.png)

## Features
- Physically based renderer
    - PBRT and OBJ scenefiles
    - Lambertian, glossy, ideal specular, and microfacet ([GGX][ggx]) BSDFs
    - Multiple importance sampled environment maps (alias method)
- [Wavefront path tracing][wavefront] at interactive framerates
    - Two implementations, one tuned for latency and the other for throughput
    - Optimized structure of arrays data layout
    - Efficient BVH with [spatial splits][sbvh]
- OptiX AI denoiser (on supported NVIDIA hardware)
    - Requires OptiX 7, CUDA 10.1+, driver 435.80+
- Supports a wide variety of systems
    - Cross-platform (Windows, MacOS, Linux)
    - NVIDIA, AMD and Intel GPUs and CPUs
    - CPU debugging with [Intel's OpenCL SDK][intel_ocl]
- Nanogui-based [user interface](gallery/user_interface.png)
    - Uses only modern OpenGL (3.3+)
- Uses [CLT][clt] for convenience and robustness

## Usage

Rename settings_default.json to settings.json. Modify to set default OpenCL device, render scale, window dimensions etc.
