Because this technology provides the software company’s Minecraft video game players more realistic graphics on personal computers. Real-time ray tracing is the ability of a chip to simulate the bouncing of light rays in a visual scene. Real-time ray tracing helps video games and other computer graphics more closely resemble shadows and reflections in the real world.
