Realtime-Raytracing using Distance-Functions

Realtime-Raytracing of procedural volumetric data (warped metaballs) including reflection, shading, 2 lights, shadows and ambient-occlusion.
Computation done in CUDA and executed on a GeForce285.

Just a fun project I started a few days ago when I heard about distance-functions (thanks cynic ;)).
It's not really meant to be entertaining, so don't expect anything spectacular to happen. ;)

Feedback welcome...
