Microsoft® DirectX® 12 and DXR, and the GeForce RTX™ platform bring real-time ray tracing to games for the first time ever. Ray tracing has been considered the holy grail of computer graphics, simulating the physical behavior of light to bring real-time, cinematic-quality rendering to games like never before.

Microsoft® DirectX® 12与DXR，基于GeForce RTX™平台，史无前例的将光线追踪技术带到了游戏平台。作为游戏图形界的圣杯，光线追踪技术可以模拟光线在真实物理世界的效果，带来前所未有的实时电影级别渲染能力。

We want to see just how creative you can be with Microsoft® DirectX® 12 and DXR! We’re asking content creators/developers to use real-time ray traced reflections, real-time shadows, real-time global illumination, and/or real-time ambient occlusion in their tech demos.

我们期待看到，在Microsoft® DirectX® 12和DXR的支持下，内容创作者将如何施展你们的才华。你们可以在Demo中灵活运用实时光线追踪反射，实时阴影，实时GI以及AO等技术。

    • Contest Terms and Conditions

    How to win
    如何获胜

    A panel of real-time ray tracing experts from NVIDIA, Microsoft, Epic Games and Tencent Next Studios will select the three best entries. Content creators and/or developers must integrate the below technology into their tech demo to qualify:

    • Real-time ray traced reflections; and/or
    • Real-time ray traced global illumination; and/or
    • Real-time ray traced shadows; and/or
    • Real-time ray traced ambient occlusion

    由来自NVIDIA，微软，Epic Games，腾讯Next Studios的评委联合组成的评审委员会将选出最好的3个作品。内容创作者/游戏开发者必须在技术Demo中使用以下技术：

    • 实时光线追踪反射，和/或
    • 实时光线追踪GI，和/或
    • 实时光线追踪阴影，和/或
    • 实时光线追踪AO

    Entries will be selected based on the following criteria:

    • Originality – has the developer created their own assets for the tech demo
    • Technical Achievement - how well has the developer integrated real-time ray traced reflections, shadows, and/or global illumination into their tech demo
    • Creativity - how well has the developer not only integrated real-time ray traced reflections, shadows, and/or global illumination into their tech demo, but how they have used it (i.e. is this something we did not anticipate?)
    • Usability - not only can the judges play the tech demo, but an enjoyable experience has been delivered

    挑选优胜者的重要因素包括：

    • 原创性 – 开发者是否使用了自己的物件
    • 技术性 – 考验对于实时光追反射，阴影与GI等的运用
    • 创意 – 开发者并不是单纯的集成了实时光线追踪的技术，而是富有创意的运用（如：是否能出乎评委们的意料？）
    • 可用性 – 考验技术demo是否可以传递优秀的用户体验

    Judgement criteria and submission requirements
    评审要素与递交规范

    • Content creators and/or developers will be asked to integrate either real-time ray traced reflections, global illumination, shadows, and/or ambient occlusion into their tech demo. Winners will be selected based on their use of the above, along with how they utilized Microsoft® DirectX® 12 and DXR in their tech demo.
    • Content creators and/or developers will be required to list pre-existing assets that were not made during the submission period.
    • Content creators and/or developers will be asked to provide a brief description of how they used Microsoft® DirectX® 12 and DXR and real-time ray traced reflections, global illumination, and/or shadows in their tech demo.
    • Content creators and/or developers will be asked how and why Microsoft® DirectX® 12 and DXR and real-time ray traced reflections, global illumination, shadows, and/or ambient occlusion has changed their development process.
    • 内容创作者/游戏开发者需要使用到实时光线追踪反射，GI，阴影与/或AO的特性。我们将基于这些技术的运用程度，以及是否合理运用Microsoft® DirectX® 12与DXR来评选优胜者。
    • 内容创作者/游戏开发者需要列出在参赛之前已经做好的物件列表。
