Learn how images are made

Interactive tools for understanding rendering, imaging, and visual computing.

Rendering

Metropolis Light Transport

Explore how light simulation evolved — from basic rasterization to Monte Carlo path tracing to Metropolis sampling. Build a Cornell box and watch photons find their way.

Color Science

Spectral Color Spaces

Visualize how human color perception maps to CIE chromaticity diagrams, gamuts, and spectral power distributions.

Optics

Lens Simulation

Trace rays through thin and thick lens systems. Understand aberrations, depth of field, and bokeh formation.
