Literature on 3D Modelling (using Pov-Ray)

 

 

Pov-Ray is a script-based open-source ray-tracing-program (www.povray.org). 

 

I learnt Pov-Ray using the book „3D-Welten, professionelle Animationen und fotorealistische Grafiken mit Raytracing“ from
Toni Lama (Carl Hanser Verlag München Wien), 2004.

 

More information on Pov-ray is available for example here: https://sus.ziti.uni-heidelberg.de/Lehre/WS2021_Tools/POVRAY/POVRAY_PeterFischer.pdf,
https://wiki.povray.org/content/Main_Page, https://de.wikibooks.org/wiki/Raytracing_mit_POV-Ray or, in german language: https://www.f-lohmueller.de/pov_tut/pov__ger.htm

 

Scripts to most of the topics outlined here are available in my Github-Account.
