Abstract
A rendering system includes: a ray generator configured to generate a ray; a memory chip configured to store information about objects in three-dimensional (3D) space; an intersection tester embedded in the memory chip and configured to perform an intersection test between the ray and the objects by using the information about the objects and information about the ray; and a shader configured to perform pixel shading based on a result of the intersection test.
