Reminds me of this WebGL demo I recently tried out which runs surprisingly well even on my Intel HD4000 MBP:

Reminds me of blender cycles: http://youtu.be/aBfG_7Co-rA?t=19s

That looks good. Do you know where I can find the code for this or maybe something similar?

View page source works, the js code is completely unobfuscated.

Thank you!

It's also on github: https://github.com/evanw/webgl-path-tracing

I am confused. I thought Brigade was created by Jacco Bikker, but then there's an OTOY logo down at the bottom. What's up with that? I didn't think these guys were related.

> The Brigade 2 path tracer was developed as part of my promotion at the University of Delft, and developed into a product for OTOY.

Jacco worked with/at OTOY for at least 9 months (until March 2013 according to his LinkedIn profile) on Brigade2. Perhaps this is a follow up without him directly involved?
