'''Octane Render''' is an ] application with real-time capability developed by graphics software company ] Inc. | |||
'''Octane Render''' is a ] 3D ] ] that utilizes the ] techniques to produce photo realistic images. It is the first unbiased renderer to work exclusively on the GPU. It is being developed by the New Zealand based company . The most notable feature of Octane Render is the ability to work in real time. Every change that the user makes, be it to materials, lighting or render settings, is immediately reflected in the rendering view port, thus giving the artist a smooth work-flow experience and immediate feedback. | |||

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.
