Electric Image Animation System (EIAS3D) is a 3D animation and rendering package available on both OS X and Windows. Mostly known for its rendering quality and rendering speed it does not include a built-in modeler. The popular film Pirates of the Caribbean [4] and the television series Lost [5] used the software.
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.
As Pixar's technical specification for a standard communications protocol (or interface) between modeling programs and rendering programs capable of producing photorealistic-quality images, RISpec is a similar concept to PostScript but for describing 3D scenes rather than 2D page layouts.
Pixar RenderMan (also known as RenderMan) [1] is a photorealistic 3D rendering software produced by Pixar Animation Studios. Pixar uses RenderMan to render their in-house 3D animated movie productions and it is also available as a commercial product licensed to third parties. In 2015, a free non-commercial version of RenderMan became available.
The name Arnold emerged when one of Fajardo's friends suggested it after mocking an Arnold Schwarzenegger film they saw in a theater. [ 9 ] In 2004, Fajardo entered a licensing and co-development agreement with Sony Pictures Imageworks , which resulted in separate branches for the commercial and Sony-proprietary versions of Arnold.
V-Ray is a biased computer-generated imagery rendering software application developed by Bulgarian software company Chaos. V-Ray is a commercial plug-in for third-party 3D computer graphics software applications and is used for visualizations and computer graphics in industries such as media, entertainment, film and video game production ...
A third-party render engine plug-in for 3ds Max. Brazil R/S A third-party photorealistic rendering system. It is capable of fast ray tracing and global illumination. Arion A third party hybrid GPU+CPU interactive, unbiased ray tracer, based on Nvidia CUDA. Indigo Renderer A third-party photorealistic renderer with plugins for 3ds Max. Maxwell ...
A type of ray tracing called path tracing is currently the most common technique for photorealistic rendering. Path tracing is also popular for generating high-quality non-photorealistic images, such as frames for 3D animated films. Both rasterization and ray tracing can be sped up ("accelerated") by specially designed microprocessors called GPUs.
