Basic features

• A shading kernel with BSDF evaluation for:
• Ideal diffuse shader.
• perfect specular reflective surface.
• Stream compaction for terminating unwanted thread from thread pool using thrust::partition
• material sorting using thrust::sort_by_key
• caching first bounce information for future iteration use

Advanced features

• refreaction with Frensel effects using Schlick's approximation
• physically based depth of field
• stochastic sampled antialiasing
• Arbitrary mesh loading and rendering
