hi all,

I want to make an animation about the so-called "mirage effect" on a heated
surface with a sphere present. (what is the mirage effect:
http://www.physlink.com/Education/askExperts/ae428.cfm)



Basicly the effect is created by a difference in refractive indix of a hot and a
cold medium (water). Is it possible in PORAY to create a location dependant
refractive index?

Regards, Ruud
