This paper presents an efficient space partitioning approach for building high quality Bounding Volume Hierarchies using x86 CPU architectures. Using this approach a structure can be built faster than a binned-SAH heuristic while the structure preserves its quality. This method consists of a hybrid implementation that uses binned-SAH for the top level and a binary partitioning approach for the rest of the levels. As a result, this method produces more regular axis-aligned bounding boxes (AABB) into a complete quadtree. Additionally, this approach takes advantage of the 4-wide vector units and exploits the SIMD extensions available for current CPU architectures. Using our construction approach a structure can be built up to three times faster than binned-SAH.
