on standard input and emitting image in PPM format to standard output:
SPD package, available at:
  http://www.acm.org/tog/resources/SPD/overview.html
could be used to generate input scenes in NFF format.

parrt implements both bounding volume hierarchy and voxel grid acceleration 
schemes for improving Ray Tracing efficiency.  It is developped primarily as a 
research tool regarding comparing and improving above efficiency schemes.

parrt is available at:
