+&Povray; uses while rendering. The possibilities range from a very simple coloring
+and lighting model, to one which has complex diffuse inter-reflection lighting.
+See the &Povray; user documentation
+for a detailed description of the rendering features.</para>
+
+<para>If an image is rendered with only one sample per pixel, various errors can occur.
+These images often have moir&eacute; or stepped effects in curves and lines, and
+details can get lost if they are smaller in appearance then one pixel.
+This effect is called <quote>aliasing</quote>.</para>
+
+<para>&Povray; uses a technique called <quote>anti-aliasing</quote> to reduce the impact
+of these errors. In general images will look smoother with this feature.</para>
+
+<para>If you enable anti-aliasing, &Povray; will calculate and combine more then one
+sample per pixel. This is called <quote>super-sampling</quote>.</para>
+
+<para>&Povray; supports two methods of super-sampling. The default 
+is an adaptive non-recursive method; <quote>adaptive</quote>
+because the super-sampling
+depends on the local neighborhood of the pixel. Not every
+pixel is super-sampled with this method. The second method is an adaptive
+recursive one; <quote>recursive</quote> because every pixel is divided and sub-divided
+recursively, and <quote>adaptive</quote> because the recursion depth depends on the
+computed color values.</para>
+
+<para>When you select the first method, povray traces one ray per pixel. If the
+difference between its color value and that of its neighbor exceeds the given threshold,
+both pixels are super-sampled by tracing a fixed number of additional rays. If you set
+the depth value to 4, a 4x4 grid of additional points will be calculated, a depth
+value of 5 will result in 5x5 (25) samples per pixel.</para>
+
+<para>The difference between two pixels is computed as follows: r<subscript>1</subscript>,
+g<subscript>1</subscript> and b<subscript>1</subscript> are the
+red, green and blue values of the first pixel; r<subscript>2</subscript>,
+g<subscript>2</subscript> and b<subscript>2</subscript> are the red,
+green and blue values of the second pixel. The difference is then:
+</para>
+<para>diff = abs(r<subscript>1</subscript>-r<subscript>2</subscript>)
++ abs(g<subscript>1</subscript>-g<subscript>2</subscript>)
++ abs(b<subscript>1</subscript>-b<subscript>2</subscript>)</para>
+
+<para>The recursive method starts with 4 samples per pixel. If the resulting color values
+differ more than the given threshold, the pixel is sub-divided into 4 sub pixels that are
+separately traced and tested for further subdivision. You can specify the maximum
+recursive depth with the depth value.</para>
+
+<para>An additional method to reduce aliasing effects is to add noise to the
+sampling process, called <quote>jittering</quote>. If you enable
+jittering, &Povray; jitters the samples a tiny amount to reduce
+regular patterns.</para>
+
+<para>The last quality setting is radiosity. Radiosity is an experimental
+&Povray; feature that computes inter-diffuse light reflection. Be patient
+when rendering a scene with this feature.</para>

+<title>What is Raytracing?</title>
+
+<para>Raytracing is a method of <link
+linkend="gloss-rendering">rendering</link>, that is, creating a 2D
+image out of a 3D scene or model.</para>
+
+<para>When raytracing a scene, the renderer shoots a hypothetical ray
+from the perspective of the viewer (that is, from the camera you are
+rendering the scene from) through each pixel in the scene. It
+calculates how this ray reflects and refracts from objects, the visual
+effects of the light sources in the scene and how atmospheric effects such
+as fog affect it. The scene is built up, pixel by pixel.</para>
+
+<para>As you may imagine, without a camera, you cannot see anything -
+the camera is your <quote>eye</quote> into the scene.  Furthermore,
+without any light, you still won't see anything - it would just be
+dark.  Obviously, any scene intended for raytracing must include
+some light, an object of some kind and at least one camera.</para>

+<para>A bump map is a way to simulate a rough surface, without having
+to model every single <quote>bump</quote> on the surface, and without
+changing the underlying geometric shape of the object itself.</para>

+<glossterm>Primitives</glossterm>
+<glossdef>
+<para>Primitives are the basic geometric shapes that you can use as
+<quote>building blocks</quote>.  Most complex 3d models are created
+from many dozens, or even hundreds, of these primitives, which are
+then edited and manipulated to give a more realistic
+appearance.</para>

+<para>A texture map is a way of applying color to the surface of an
+object on a pixel by pixel basis, by applying an image file as a color
+map.</para>
