GPU Ray Tracing - nVidia tech talk

GPU ray tracing is available as a main stream tool. Five years ago considered "the future" but impossible on GPU (challenge/claim made to GPU community). NVidia solution is Optix, a library API for abstracting the RT core from the hardware. There are a bunch of commercial apps for RT on GPU but Optix as an API for developers looks interesting. Beta of new version available soon.
