Image Synthesis - Project 3

These are samples from a simulated sensor. The grid is on the xy-plane and a sphere emitting light from it's surface at random vectors hits the sensor grid and accumulates XYZ factors, which are converted to RGB on the graphics card and displayed to the screen. Below are images of this program taken at different number of photon emissions.
