Abstract
Disclosed is a portable ray tracing apparatus. The apparatus includes: a physical connection unit providing a physical connection to a connection port of a user terminal; a graphic data area detecting unit detecting a graphic data area which is allocated to a system memory of the user terminal if the physical connection is provided and which employs an acceleration structure for graphics processes agreed upon in advance; and a graphic processor operating unit synchronizing the graphic data area with an internal memory and operating a graphic processor of the user terminal. Therefore, the present invention performs ray tracing by being physically connected to a computing device and thereby shares graphics processing.
