The National Science Foundation (NSF) Computer and Information Science and Engineering (CISE) Program, CFDA 47.070, has awarded a $600,000 Project Grant to the University of Utah. This 3-year grant, effective October 1, 2025, will support research to improve the performance of ray tracing, a computer graphics technique that generates highly realistic images by simulating the physics of light interaction. The project aims to develop hardware and software techniques to accelerate ray tracing, enabling the use of this computationally intensive method in interactive applications like games, data visualization, and virtual reality. Key focus areas include compressing ray data and reordering computations to address the data movement challenges that limit ray tracing performance on current graphics processing units (GPUs). The University of Utah, a prominent public research institution, will leverage its expertise in computer graphics, hardware/software co-design, and high-performance computing to execute this project and expand the capabilities of ray tracing technology.
