NVIDIA and game developer Remedy Entertainment showcased a video that illustrates the capabilities of RTX, the new real-time ray tracing technology from NVIDIA.
Some more details about RTX can be read at GeForce.com.
NVIDIA RTX Technology, Volta-architecture GPUs, the GameWorks SDK, and the Microsoft DirectX Raytracing API make real-time ray tracing a reality for games. Check out this Northlight-engine tech demo from Remedy Entertainment for an early look at how real-time ray tracing can vastly improve the quality of lighting and shadowing in games.
Please note that a ray-tracing denoiser module is coming to the GameWorks SDK, which will enable developers to remove film grain-like noise without any additional time-sapping development work, meaning the end result will look even better.
