- Fractal rendering is not limited to Mandelbrot or Julia sets; the MRS fractal is another method.
- MRS stands for Mirror, Rotate, Scale, which are the three geometric operations it uses.
- The core idea involves iteratively applying mirroring, rotating, and scaling to a 3D point to create nested structures.
- The mathematical formula for the iteration is given as \(p_{n+1} = s \cdot R\left(M\left(p_n\right)\right) - o\).
- A reference shader snippet demonstrates how to implement the MRS fractal in code, including mirroring, rotating, and scaling operations.
