LuxRender is a physically based and unbiased rendering engine. 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.
