You can crank up the eye rays per pixel to around 10 and still get about 30 FPS. I decided to see how far I could push the system before it broke. Similarly, at each level of the sphereflake, the radius of the spheres is a third of that of the parent sphere. With nine children for each parent, each new level of recursion adds in the same amount of surface area as the level before. This makes for a model that, taken to its limit, has a finite volume 1. The huge area light causes noise, since a single shadow ray is shot at each ground location in a random direction. Some rays hit the sphereflake, causing a shadow. However, I created a separate object for each sphere. Steve Parker pointed out that I could use instancing, which should conservatively give me

Great intro to ray tracing through an easy-to-follow project. I mean, I took a course from Pete in grad school, so of course I'm biased I picked this up to have a small project through which to get back into Rust. It's light on theory, but allows you to get started in ray tracing pretty quickly and generate beautiful images with your own code, just printing pixels colours to PPM image text files no OpenGL or other heavy weight libraries.
