Young's interference experiment

[ecximer]

I tried to reproduce Young experience - quitted nothing. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Young%27s_interference_experiment
Neither photons, nor ray trace. :)
Who does that think about it?

I don't think this would happen in ANY renderer! :)

[Polymax]

Should try this in Maxwell :)

[Ondra]

most wave effects are ignored my all renderers, it would give no benefits in 99.9999999999% scenes, and it would unreasonably complicate and slow down everything. See chapter 1.5 here on the various effects that are not simulated http://graphics.stanford.edu/papers/veach_thesis/thesis.pdf

Now it is clear why so slow Maxwell :)

[Ondra]

I bet maxwell is not doing it either...

[maru]

Simulating this would be as useful as simulating Doppler's effect. ;)

[Polymax]

I agree that it is not cost-effective, and in real life, you can see it is extremely rare!
