Photon Mapped Caustics Photon mapping is a version of raytraced lighting, that is neither raytraced nor raycast. Instead, it combines the two methods. Rays from the light source and rays from the camera are traced independently of one another, until they meet in the middle ? or a set length is exceeded, not meeting another beam. Those that meet and are travelling in the same direction are kept, all others are discarded. The process continues until all rays have met a partner.

A look at creating aesthetically pleasing, realistic water movements, using caustics - for ultra-realism for low processing power. 
 As the demands for precise imaging in fields such as medicine, astronomy, and real-time machine vision in hostile environments continue to increase, so the demands placed on imaging equipment become ever more stringent. An imaging method based on Single Photon Avalanche Photodiodes (SPAD) offers the potential to ease this bottleneck greatly.
 Intelligence. We understand the concept, and the meaning of this word, but where in the brain, precisely, is intelligence actually located? Until recently, we did not really, have a clue. Now, using perhaps the most common sense approach possible, from neuroscientists at the California Institute of Technology have mapped the cognitive zones of the human brain.
