Abstract
Examples described herein generally relate to generating a visualization of an image. A proprietary structure that specifies ray tracing instructions for generating the image using ray tracing is intercepted from a graphics processing unit (GPU) or a graphics driver. The proprietary structure can be converted, based on assistance information, to a visualization structure for generating the visualization of the image. The visualization of the image can be generated from the visualization structure.
