Implement a data structure to minimize intersection tests.

1. Create bounding boxes for objects.
2. Implement Oct tree structure that holds objects + functionality for adding objects.
3. Intersection test in Oct tree.

Make freeing memory more robust.

• e.g. delete on an already freed pointer.
• e.g each objects need it's an new pointer to the same material.

When using the plane object the hole image is affected even if te objects are in front. The plane object makes all objects in front mat.

Now the intersection of ray and sphere is calculated using analytic method. Use more stable method.

Ray tracing is relative easy to multithread. We can divide the image in chunks and render each chunk on a different thread.
