Abstract
An apparatus and method for traversing a hierarchical acceleration structure may determine whether a current traversal node is a leaf node, may calculate a first distance from the current traversal node to a pop level and a second distance from a root node to the pop level when the current traversal node is the leaf node, and may determine a hierarchical traversal restarting position by comparing the first distance and the second distance.
