Intel® Embree contains algorithms optimized for incoherent workloads (e.g. Monte Carlo ray tracing algorithms) and coherent workloads (e.g. primary visibility and hard shadow rays). The single-ray traversal kernels of Intel® Embree provide high -performance for incoherent workloads and are very easy to integrate into -existing rendering applications. Using the stream kernels, even higher -performance for incoherent rays is possible, but integration might -require significant code changes to the application to use the stream -paradigm. In general for coherent workloads, the stream mode with -coherent flag set gives the best performance. +performance for incoherent workloads and are very easy to integrate +into existing rendering applications.

Intel® Embree also supports dynamic scenes by implementing high-performance two-level spatial index structure construction |
