Alexey Dokuchaev b464932ec0 LuxRender is a physically based and unbiased rendering engine. Based on
state-of-art algorithms, LuxRender simulates the flow of light according
to physical equations, thus producing realistic images of photographic
quality.

LuxRender is free software -- both for personal and commercial use -- and
is licensed under the GPL.  Fully functional exporters are available for
Blender and Maya, while exporters for a growing number of 3D applications
are under development.

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.
