Maori

Keyword: Matlab optical raytracing toolbox

Functional Description

The purpose of the Maori project is to provide a simple, extensible, optical raytracing library in Matlab that incorporates some modern concepts from computer graphics. In particular it features scene graph integration, a shader model, CSG objects and uses non-sequential raytracing as default. The goal is to provide a simple-to-use 3D system. In contrast to most commercial systems, 2D rotationally symmetric systems are treated as special cases of the 3D setting.
