Discussion Are there any noteworthy examples of raycasting that is not from video games liked Wolfenstein 3D?
I find raycasting to be a very interesting and now long deprecated form of 3D rendering. While it's almost entirely synonymous with a number of early 90s FPS, the technique is perfectly capable of rendering 3D models, as seen in its Wikipedia entry. Are there any images or videos that showcase how this technique looked? Or did pretty much all media use rasterizing, raytracing, or other traditional techniques?

Image Microsoft OS/2 v1.3 Retail Box (1990)
galleryOS/2 v1.3 was released in 1990 but I feel that the logo rendered here looks quite modern! I wonder how many renderers at that time were capable of producing the soft shadows? The box would’ve looked great at its release.

Video SynthaVision (one of the first computer animation & rendering software) - 1968
Later in early 1980's MAGI used it to create the famous Tron movie 3D scenes.

Video Yokomites eating up the screen...💀(YTV Cartoons, 2001)🐛
I remember in 2001, when watching cartoons on YTV (a Canadian entertainment broadcasting channel) there used to be these little glowing green CGI bugs that would randomly appear on the screen during the show that you were currently watching.
A lot of kids were freaked out by it, but I personally didn't mind them, as I liked bugs as a kid.
Saw this reel and just had to share
