Google Summer of Code/2024

GSoC 2024 With BRL-CAD

BRL-CAD was accepted as an umbrella mentoring organization for the Google Summer of Code! This year, we accepted 9 students to work on IfcOpenShell, BRL-CAD, KiCad, Appleseed, Manifold and OpenSCAD.

Accepted Projects

Neural rendering

• Description: The project aims to explore the feasibility of using neural networks to accelerate ray tracing for 3D rendering, investigating whether neural nets can be leveraged for arbitrary shot line queries more accurately and efficiently than direct computation.
