wave_tracer 0.1 released wavetracer.dev wave_tracer combines path tracing and wave optics in a novel way, for practical general-purpose wave simulations across a variety of EM modalities and applications.

I stand (sit) behind this: alecjacobson.com/weblog/siggr... I will also warn Israeli potential attendants (meaning any civilian connection to Israel, like familial relations, loose as it may be) risk *getting kidnapped or worse*. Yes, even if you travel with a foreign passport, you may be targeted,

To be presented in SIGGRAPH Asia: A path tracing-compatible formulation for general-purpose wave transport. See how light transport, under rigorous Wigner optics, can be done practically for optical, long-wavelength (RADAR/cellular), and acoustics applications. ssteinberg.xyz/2023/03/27/r...

Happy to announce that I have joined UWaterloo as assistant professor. If you are interested in doing a PhD in rendering or light transport, check out ssteinberg.xyz/students.

A Free-Space Diffractions BSDF. This paper addresses the problem of simulating the diffractions ("bending") of light around geometry and obstacles, in an efficient manner with ray tracing. Collaboration with NVIDIA. t.co/FnMiR8XO2g
