Unbiased rendering application

Octane Render


Developer(s)	OTOY Inc.

Stable release	OctaneRender 2022.1 (CUDA) / Octane X (Metal) / June 8, 2023 (2023-06-08)

Written in	C++
Operating system	Windows XP and later MacOS Big Sur or later Linux
Platform	Arm64 or x64 CUDA-enabled NVIDIA or Apple Metal-enabled AMD, Intel Skylake or Apple M1 GPU
Type	Rendering system
License	Proprietary commercial software
Website	home.otoy.com/render/octane-render/

Octane Render is an unbiased rendering application with real-time capability developed by graphics software company OTOY Inc.

Octane render was the first commercially available unbiased path-tracer that fully utilized the GPU, allowing users to modify scenes close to real time without the speed malus of CPU rendering.

Octane Render runs on Nvidia's CUDA technology using Nvidia GPU video cards; Octane X for macOS Big Sur, and runs on Metal on AMD, Intel Skylake and Apple Silicon graphics cards.
