Visualizing Kerr Spacetime — •Thomas Reiber — Universität Hildesheim

Ray Tracing methods are used to calculate images of a background scenery as seen by an observer in Kerr spacetime. Contrary to most simulations I use the maximal analytic extension of Kerr spacetime as described by Boyer and Lindquist in 1967. The program is to be developed towards an interactive flight simulator.
