Monte Carlo ray tracing can compute accurate motion blur, but requires a large number of samples per pixel to converge. In comparison, rasterization, in combination with a post-processing filter, can generate fast, but not accurate motion blur from a single sample per pixel. We build upon a recent path tracing denoiser and propose its variant to simulate ray-traced motion blur, enabling fast and high-quality motion blur from a single sample per pixel. Our approach creates temporally coherent renderings by estimating the motion direction and variance locally, and using these estimates to guide wavelet filters at different scales. We compare image quality against brute force Monte Carlo methods and current post-processing motion blur. Our approach achieves real-time frame rates, requiring less than 4ms for full-screen motion blur at a resolution of 1920 × 1080 on recent graphics cards.CCS Concepts: Computing methodologies -> Ray tracing Additional Key Words and Phrases: motion blur, ray tracing, reconstruction, real-time renderingComputing methodologiesRay tracing Additional Key Words and Phrasesmotion blurray tracingreconstructionrealtime renderingSpatiotemporal Variance-Guided Filtering for Motion Blur10.1145/3543871
