The video discusses the beta version of Minecraft with ray tracing technology, specifically designed for NVIDIA RTX graphics cards. The creator showcases the game's improved lighting effects, such as realistic dispersion and reflection of light, and demonstrates how it enhances the overall gaming experience. They also highlight the benefits of using the DLSS (Deep Learning Super Sampling) 2.0 technology, which uses artificial intelligence to reconstruct images in real-time, allowing for smoother gameplay and higher frame rates. The video concludes with the creator thanking NVIDIA for providing access to the beta and inviting viewers to try it out when it becomes available.
Here are the key facts extracted from the text:
1. The beta version of Minecraft with ray tracing is available for testing.
2. Ray tracing allows for real-time calculation of light dispersion and reflection in Minecraft.
3. Nvidia created a map in partnership with professional Minecraft map makers to showcase the effects of ray tracing.
4. The beta version of Minecraft with ray tracing will be available for free to those who have an Nvidia RTX card.
5. The technology used to calculate light dispersion and reflection in real-time is called DLS (Deep Learning Super Sampling).
6. DLS technology uses artificial intelligence to reconstruct images from lower resolutions to make them appear higher definition.
7. The beta version of Minecraft with ray tracing has a "DNS 2.0" feature, which is an evolution of the first version.
8. DNS 2.0 does not require training artificial intelligence for each individual game.
9. The game can be rendered with a lower resolution than the monitor, and then rebuilt with artificial intelligence to appear higher definition.
10. The performance of the game can be improved by using DNS 2.0, with a significant increase in frame rate.
11. Nvidia sponsored the video showcasing the beta version of Minecraft with ray tracing.
12. A link to more information about ray tracing in Minecraft is available in the description.
13. The beta version of Minecraft with ray tracing will be available to the public soon.
