Existing methods either rely on pre-tessellation, taking f ull advantage of the hardware but with a poor memory quality tradeoff, or use custom displacement-centric acceleration structures, preserving all th e geometric details, but being orders of magnitude slower. We introduce a method that efficiently probes the displacement map space to find intersec tions without relying on pre-tessellation. Our method combines inverse dis placement mapping with on-the-fly surface bounds computation using a novel data structure that models tight bounds over anisotropic axis-aligned reg ions in the displacement map space. We demonstrate the effectiveness of ou r approach in a production GPU path tracer, providing from 2x to an order of magnitude speed-up in render time compared to state of the art in the most challenging real-time path tracing scenarios while maintaining a low memory footprint.\n\nRegistration Category: Full Access\n\nSession Chair: Bin Chen (Max-Planck-Institut für Informatik, D4: Computer Graphics) URL:https://asia.siggraph.org/2023/full-program?id=papers_495&sess=sess122 END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
