Ray Tracing in C++ : Normal Maps #shorts

A simple animation demonstrating the power of normal maps to add surface details without adding geometry. Both of the striped spheres here are just spheres, but the one on the right looks like a more complicated surface because the normal map alters the shading and reflections. The next episode in my Ray Tracing in C++ series will look at how normal maps work and how they can be implemented.
