We introduce an interactive Monte Carlo path tracer that uses the OpenCL framework. A path tracer draws a photo-realistic image of a 3D scene by simulating physical effects of light. Interactivity enables the user to move around the scene in real time, while OpenCL makes it possible to run the same code on either CPU or GPU architectures. The results presented here are a starting point for our further work on path tracing on heterogeneous architectures.
