Description
FurryBall merges the rapid rendering capabilities of GPUs with the high quality and extensive features typically found in CPU rendering systems. This rendering solution is notably swift, leveraging GPU power to achieve remarkable speed unlike traditional CPU-based systems. However, it is important to note that FurryBall was discontinued in 2018, and as such, no support or maintenance is available for users. The software offers standalone versions and plugins compatible with Autodesk Maya, 3DS Max, and Cinema 4D. Additionally, FurryBall employs UNBIASED Monte Carlo raytracing (a path tracing method akin to the CPU-based Arnold renderer) while providing real-time progressive previews directly in the viewport. The system supports final frame rendering in various file formats, along with the ability to handle layers and passes efficiently. Originally designed for CGI animated films, visual effects, and feature movie production, FurryBall RT is particularly user-friendly, allowing artists to adjust the overall image quality with just a single parameter if desired. This combination of features made FurryBall a unique tool in the rendering landscape before its discontinuation.
Description
Mitsuba 2 is a research-focused, flexible rendering system crafted in portable C++17 and built upon the Enoki library, developed by the Realistic Graphics Lab at EPFL. It supports multiple variants, accommodating different color representations such as RGB, spectral, and monochrome, along with various vectorization options including scalar, SIMD, and CUDA, as well as capabilities for differentiable rendering. The system comprises a compact collection of core libraries supplemented by an extensive array of plugins that provide features like diverse materials, light sources, and comprehensive rendering algorithms. Mitsuba 2 aims to maintain compatibility with its predecessor, Mitsuba 0.6, ensuring a smooth transition for users. The rendering engine is backed by an extensive automated test suite created in Python, and its ongoing development is supported by several continuous integration servers that compile and verify new updates across various operating systems and compilation configurations, such as debug or release builds and single or double precision. This comprehensive testing framework enhances the robustness and reliability of the software, making it a valuable tool for researchers in the field of graphics.
