Improvements to lighting within VRED scenes, as well as support for more functionality in OpenGL mode.

Visualize HTML 5 content in a VRED scene, including immersive validation of a user human-machine interface (HMI) design in 3D.

Bake light shadows into geometry to get a more natural view of the object with fewer calculations.

Accurately simulate the translucent behaviors of materials such as skin, milk, wax, and plastic.

Create a lens flare effect for your lights in ray tracing and OpenGL modes.

Create an atmospheric fog effect in your scene, with controls for color, falloff, and density.

Use a wide range of photorealistic automotive virtual prototyping materials such as glass, car paint, and metal.

Easily control brightness using HDR lighting to illuminate an entire scene with a high-dynamic-range picture.

The camera module’s physical parameters make elaborate post-processing unnecessary.

Visualize realistic behavior based on captured material data with measured materials.

Use 3D clipping on digital data, polygons, and even native NURBS data.

Attach annotations directly to a 3D model during an interactive review.

Use the same curvature shader evaluation mode available in Alias industrial design software.

Visual simulation features help you better understand lighting distribution inside a scene.

Set material override in the Render Layer module. Store render passes in pre-composed layered EXR and PSD files.

For additional post-processing, export your render passes for further adaptations in image processing software.

Improve visual quality for interior scenes with fewer overall samples using a noise reduction tool for rendering.

Rendering modes deliver various levels of display quality and speed. Switch between OpenGL and ray tracing mode.

Organize how multiple users share a cluster, schedule cluster ray tracing, and manage jobs.

Organize complex batch processes and execute them sequentially, on a single machine or in a CPU cluster environment.

Build NURBS topology or rebuild an existing one. With TrueNURBS, you can load native NURBS data from a CAD model.

Achieve color correctness and capture realistic dispersion effects with wavelength-based spectral rendering.
