Autodesk Arnold (also known as simply Arnold) is a computer program for rendering three-dimensional, computer-generated scenes using unbiased, physically-based, Monte Carlo path tracing techniques. Created in Spain by Marcos Fajardo, it was later co-developed by his company Solid Angle SL (now owned by Autodesk ) and Sony Pictures Imageworks .
This page provides a list of 3D rendering software, the dedicated engines used for rendering computer-generated imagery. This is not the same as 3D modeling software , which involves the creation of 3D models, for which the software listed below can produce realistically rendered visualisations.

Path tracing is a computer graphics Monte Carlo method of rendering images of three-dimensional scenes such that the global illumination is faithful to reality. Fundamentally, the algorithm is integrating over all the illuminance arriving to a single point on the surface of an object.
Octane Render A third party unbiased GPU ray tracer with plugins for 3ds Max, based on Nvidia CUDA. Luxrender An open-source ray tracer supporting 3ds Max, Cinema 4D, Softimage, and Blender. Focuses on photorealism by simulating real light physics as much as possible. Arnold Arnold is an unbiased, physically based, unidirectional path-tracing ...
The Arnold renderer, first released in 1998, proved that path tracing was practical for rendering frames for films, and that there was a demand for unbiased and physically based rendering in the film industry; other commercial and open source path
Open Shading Language (OSL) is a shading language developed by Sony Pictures Imageworks, a Canadian visual effects and computer animation studio headquartered in Vancouver, British Columbia and Montreal, Quebec, with an additional office on the Sony Pictures Studios lot in Culver City, California, a unit of Sony Pictures Entertainment's Motion Picture Group, which through an intermediate ...
Open Shading Language (OSL) was developed by Sony Pictures Imageworks for use in its Autodesk Arnold Renderer. It is also used by Blender 's Cycles render engine. OSL's surface and volume shaders define how surfaces or volumes scatter light in a way that allows for importance sampling; thus, it is well suited for physically-based renderers that ...
