Abstract
A visual attention-based ray tracing method includes: determining whether each sampling pixel hits a primary ray during a process of generating a first image by rending a specific scene at a first resolution; and performing selective rendering repeatedly on candidate pixels existing between the sampling pixels during a process of generating a second image by rendering the first image at a second resolution higher than the first resolution through adaptive adjustment of a threshold due to hit frequencies of neighboring pixels.
