  • Cycles Renderer

  • Cycles is Blender’s ray-trace based production render engine and in development since 2011. It was originally developed by Brecht van Lommel, and is maintained by an active team of developers today. Since its release as Apache 2.0 (permissive open source), it’s also in use by other 3D tools, such as Poser and Rhino.

  • Radeon ProRender

  • Radeon ProRender (formerly AMD FireRender) is a powerful physically-based rendering engine that enables creative professionals to produce stunningly photorealistic images. Built on highly efficient, high-performance Radeon Rays technology, Radeon ProRender’s complete, scalable ray tracing engine uses open industry standards to harness GPU and CPU performance for swift, impressive results.The Radeon ProRender engine features an extensive native physically-based material and camera system to enable true design decisions with global illumination (including caustics!) Unlike other renderers, Radeon ProRender can simultaneously use and balance the compute capabilities of multiple GPUs and CPUs – on the same system, at the same time – and deliver state-of-the-art GPU acceleration to produce rapid, accurate results even on less-capable hardware. Radeon ProRender’s powerful combination of multiple OS- and hardware-compatibility, rendering capabilities and hardware efficiency helps drastically reduces the time required to deliver true-to-life images.Soon to be available as open source, freely available and distributable today, Radeon ProRender plug-ins are available for many popular 3D content-creation applications, including Autodesk® 3ds Max®, Dassault Systèmes SOLIDWORKS and Rhino®, with Autodesk® Maya® coming soon. Because it’s built on industry-standard OpenCL™, Radeon ProRender works across Windows®, OS X and Linux®, and supports AMD GPUs and CPUs as well as those of other vendors. »

  • Adobe Dimension CC

  • Adobe Dimension CC (formerly Project Felix) is the 3D design tool made for graphic designers. With extensive integration with Adobe Stock, you can easily composite 2D and 3D assets to build product shots, scene visualizations, and abstract art. You can preview your design as you go, experiment and edit your ideas without having to render a final image to see your work. You can also enlarge the preview window to see details up close. When you’re ready, render your design into a high-quality asset you can save and then open in Adobe Photoshop CC to refine further. »

  • Octane Render

  • Octane Render is the world's first GPU based, un-biased, physically based renderer. What does that mean? It uses the video card in your computer to render photorealistic results fast...really fast. This allows the user to create stunning works in a fraction of the time of traditional CPU based renderers.
