METHODS AND GRAPHICS PROCESSING UNITS FOR DETERMINING DIFFERENTIAL DATA FOR RAYS OF A RAY BUNDLE

Graphics processing system configured to perform ray tracing. Rays are bundled together and processed together. When differential data is needed by a shader, the data of a true ray in the bundle can be used rather than processing separate tracker rays.
