How to render a specific ray through a scene

[chinmay0301ucsd]

Hi,
Is it possible to render a specific ray through a scene using mitsuba API? Basically I want to use mi.render(scene), but but on a set of randomly generated rays instead of using the sensor directly. What would be a good way to do this?

Yes, this is possible. I would recommend you take a look at this tutorial.

Otherwise, you can also use the Integrator.sample() method directly, providing your own rays.
