Abstract
We discuss the performance of two acceleration data structures for electromagnetic ray-tracing on GPU using the CUDA language, namely the kD-tree and the SBVH. Our implementations have been based on the approach by NVIDIA which accounts for the programming optimizations possible for the latest version of CUDA and NVIDIA GPU architectures.
