Hi,
I would like to use povray for a scientific application in which I need to
accurately (<=1%) calculate global illumination in simple, idealized
geometries with area sources. Does anybody know or have experience with how
accurate povray is? Are there any hidden simplifications that inhibit an
exact, physically correct calculation?
