you can find this kind of shader in [shadertoy.com](http://shadertoy.com)  
and can make any shader in babylon customshader and control effect by set value

they are not hard if you learn shader

There is something that’s not very clear to me yet: what is your level of 3D experience? Have you worked with any 3D framework before?

First you want sphere matching now path tracing.

Second here is an environment for you.

Path tracing is quite an advanced effect, and while it’s not impossible to start with that, I’d highly recommend taking a look at the Babylon Starting Guide first - it’s a great resource to start your 3D journey! [Welcome to Getting Started with Babylon.js | Babylon.js Documentation (babylonjs.com)](https://doc.babylonjs.com/start) Nailing down these basic concepts will make it MUCH easier to dive deep into more advanced effects like PT 😃
