Abstract
Based on the refractive property and/or reflectance property of an object, it is determined which one of light, spectra, and channels is to be used as a target for tracing by the ray-tracing method. A pixel value of image data representing the object is determined by tracing at least one entity of the determined target for tracing from a view point in the virtual three-dimensional space to a light source.
