Abstract

A method of rendering an image includes receiving information of a virtual camera, including a camera position and a camera orientation defining a virtual screen; receiving information of a target screen, including a target screen position and a target screen orientation defining a plurality of pixels, each respective pixel corresponding to a respective UV coordinate on the target screen; for each respective pixel of the target screen: determining a respective XY coordinate of a corresponding point on the virtual screen based on the camera position, the camera orientation, the target screen position, the target screen orientation, and the respective UV coordinate; tracing one or more rays from the virtual camera through the corresponding point on the virtual screen toward a virtual scene; and estimating a respective color value for the respective pixel based on incoming light from virtual objects in the virtual scene that intersect the one or more rays.
