    Abstract: Aspects presented herein relate to methods and devices for graphics processing including an apparatus, e.g., a GPU or CPU. The apparatus may configure a BVH structure including a plurality of nodes, the BVH structure being associated with geometry data for a plurality of primitives in a scene. The apparatus may also detect a set of hit child nodes for a current node of the plurality of nodes. Further, the apparatus may sort the set of hit child nodes based on the parametric distance value of each of the set of hit child nodes. The apparatus may also compress the node ID and the parametric distance value for each of an updated set of hit child nodes based on the sorted set of hit child nodes. The apparatus may also store the compressed node ID and the compressed parametric distance value for each of the updated set of hit child nodes.

    Abstract: Aspects presented herein relate to methods and devices for graphics processing including an apparatus, e.g., a GPU or CPU. The apparatus may configure a BVH structure including a plurality of nodes, the BVH structure being associated with geometry data for a plurality of primitives in a scene. The apparatus may also detect a set of child nodes for a current node of the plurality of nodes. Further, the apparatus may identify a first child node of the set of child nodes based on a node ID of the first child node. The apparatus may also calculate an offset between the node ID of the first child node and a node ID of each of the remaining child nodes in the set of child nodes. The apparatus may also store a representation of the node ID of each of the set of child nodes based on the calculated offset.
