ART VPS To Deliver Hardware-Accelerated Ray Traced Visualization for CATIA and ENOVIA Users
RenderPipe integrates with Maya, VIZ and 3ds max to give users access to hardware-accelerated ray tracing on ART VPS's PURE and RenderDrive systems.
The new RenderPipe plug-ins extend support for color and environment nodes in Maya 6 and VIZ 2005.
ART VPS has also increased RenderPipe speed by caching data on PURE or RenderDrive systems between frames, saving re-export of unchanged data on consecutive frames.
RenderPipe supports standard materials and RenderMan RP shaders for all versions of Maya, VIZ and 3ds max.
It comes with ART VPS's RenderCoat material library, which provides physically based surface materials tuned for PURE and RenderDrive's accelerated ray tracing.
In conjunction with the new RenderPipe release, ART VPS now offers interactive tutorials for 3ds max and Maya; the step-by-step videos help customers get the most out of PURE and RenderDrive ray tracing.
