Implementation: Surface Property-Encoded Ray Tracing

• Begin with property-encoded TAE molecular surface

  • Use 0.002 e/au3 electron density isosurface (104-105 elements)

• ëBounceí rays throughout the volume of a molecule

  • Random starting location and direction
  • Ray collision detection technology

• Determining point-of-incidence is difficult

  • Use Binary-Space-Partitioning Tree
