Based on +state of the art algorithms, LuxRender simulates the flow of light according +to physical equations, thus producing realistic images of photographic +quality. Some of the main features of LuxRender are: + + * biased and unbiased rendering: Users can choose between physical + accuracy (unbiased) and speed (biased); + * full spectral rendering: Instead of the RGB colour spectrum, full + spectra are used for internal calculations; + * hierarchical procedural and image based texture system: Procedural and + image based textures can be mixed in various ways, making it possible to + create complex materials; + * displacement mapping and subdivision: Based on procedural or image + textures, object surfaces can be transformed; + * network and co-operative rendering: Rendering time can be reduced by + combining the processing power of multiple computers; + * perspective (including shift lens), orthographic, and environment + cameras; + * HDR output: Render output can be saved in various file formats, + including .png, .tga, and .exr. + +Fully functional exporters are available for Blender and Maya, while +exporters for a growing number of 3D applications are under development. + +WWW: http://www.luxrender.net/ |
