Current consumer GPUs can be used as high performance stream processors and are a tempting platform to be used to implement raytracing. In this paper I briefly present raytracing principles and methods used to accelerate it, modern GPUs programmable pipeline and examples of its use. I describe stream processing in general and available interfaces enabling the usage of GPU as stream processor. Then I present my GPU raytracer implementation, used algorithms and experiments I have made.
