Ghost Gaze - Real Time Algorithms

Ghost Gaze is a real-time graphics application that makes extensive use of general purpose GPU programming via Unity compute shaders. Users can play with a ball and a magical lamp. When you point the head of the lamp at the beaded drapes its gaze pushes them away. Similarly the ball can also interact with the beads. Users can toggle between traditional rasterization-based rendering and the integrating ray tracing rendering pipeline. Lastly, users can manipulate the simulation settings to control the way in which the lamp and ball interact with the beads.
