Ray Tracing Technology, which NVIDIA impressively adapted to the game world, became more usable with the introduction of new generation games. Popular productions such as Cyberpunk 2077 and Dying Light 2, which will be released soon, will actively use this technology.

What is ray tracing?
Ray Tracing Technologyhelps to trace the rays of every object that comes into contact with light in the virtual environments created. Ray Tracking Technology, which takes its name from what it does exactly, follows all points from the source of the light to the place where it hits. Thanks to this system, images as close to reality as possible can be obtained.
Pixar and Illumination Entertainment This technology, which has been used by world-renowned animation companies for a long time, is actually not that new. However, NVIDIA’s role in this matter is critical. Behind the fact that giant companies such as Pixar, which we mentioned above, have been able to use this technology for many years, lay systems that are tens of times more powerful than the computers in our homes. As NVIDIA can fit this technology into standard computers in our homes, the main focus of the past year has been Ray Tracking Technology. This situation seems to continue in the coming years.
