@thomasfuchs This seems to be the source. I found a website how it was used in Cars, but are there earlier examples? Pre-Pixar? https://www.makeuseof.com/what-is-ray-tracing/

@numbertheory It’s been used in movies since the early 1980s for more experimental stuff (e.g. Tron) and since the late 1980s for photorealistic special effects, e.g. water creature in The Abyss (1989). Most prominently of course the dinosaurs in Jurassic Park (1993).
