Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
Currently, raytracing in ARTIST uses a batch matrix multiplication, which is based on the assumption that within a given scenario:

  • Every heliostat has the same number of facets.
  • Each of these facets has the same number of evaluation points.
    This enables batch matrix multiplication due to the identical shapes. However, if we desire more flexibility, we should discuss alternative solutions.

Describe the solution you'd like
We should discuss the possibilities and decide whether to leave the raytracing as is or rework it to allow a different number of facets per heliostat and a different number of evaluation points per facet.

Thoughts on this - perhaps we should discuss this further before moving forward?
