ray intersection algorithms
Ray intersection algorithms are methods used in computer graphics and computational geometry to determine whether a ray (represented by a starting point and a direction) intersects with objects or surfaces in a given scene or environment. These algorithms help calculate the intersection point and properties of the objects encountered by the ray, which are crucial for realistic rendering, collision detection, and other related applications.
