Ray tracing is typically the kind of things you want to do as fast as possible, ideally in real time. Quantum computers will never work fast.
Also if I'm not mistaken ray tracing scales well with conventional computers : the quality of your output is proportional to the number of rays you simulate. So it's not an appropriate use case for quantum computers.
- posterboy 9y agobut it's not linear with the number of reflections and transissions, I guess, if you want physically correct materials. Or if you want aberations and, well, "quantum effects" like in the slit experiment.
