I can’t help with code, but there have been a few other ray tracing codes presented here. [This thread](https://discourse.julialang.org/t/ray-tracing-in-a-week-end-julia-vs-simd-optimized-c/72958) has a long discussion, and if you check out the links right after the original post, there are other threads to follow. Maybe one of those will give you some new ideas.
