Abstract
A method for processing a three-dimensional (3D) image of a ray tracing scheme may be performed by an image processing apparatus by verifying whether local index information matching intersection point information of a ray is present within a prefetch table when intersection point information is received, and by transferring, to a shader, rendering information stored in a local memory based on the local index information, when the local index information matching the intersection point information is present.
