Recently, I had the pleasure of contributing to Nvidiaās Zorah project, the flagship demo for the RTX 50 Series GPUs. My primary role was to provide technical support for light transport in Zorah, which included collaborating with my colleague Daqi Lin to implement a brand new ReSTIR-based global illumination solution, specifically, ReSTIR PT[1], within the NvRTX branch of Unreal Engine. A GDC presentation video on Zorah was released a few weeks ago.
