  • Performance analysis of ray tracing based rendering using OpenCL , IEEE

    Published on: Apr 21, 2017

    The process of rendering images using OpenGL APIs for cross-platform compatibility is discussed. The paper evaluates the performance of OpenCL rendering on heterogeneous devices such as CPU, GPU, and CPU+GPU, using LuxMark application and ray tracing techniques. Results indicate that utilizing both CPU and GPU together resulted in faster rendering speeds compared to using GPU or CPU alone, with improvements ranging from 50-70% and 60-600% respectively.
