Spectral Studio

Spectral Studio is a photo realistic renderer, working on both the GPU or the CPU, un-biased and based on physically correct rules. The main difference is that the GPU is able to render faster due to the number of core (more than 1000 theses days), on the other side the CPU is able to use more memory even if most of the scenes fit well on the GPU. So it is up to you to choose the solution that fit your needs.
It is a standalone tool that provides a complete solution for those who want great image quality and full control.
Editing your materials and all your settings in real-time is a reality. Fine tune your materials and your lightning parameters to see the exact result you're looking for.

• Standalone tool
  Spectral Studio is an interactive WYSIWYG editing application, allowing you to do your changes in real-time. It use the GPU power (also work in multi-GPU mode or CPU mode) to render your scene, materials, lights, textures...
  
  With this you have a set of useful tools, by example to see the normals, to soft the normals, import files, select objects, change the views and more.
• Scene graph editor
  The scene graph editor allow to edit all the scene elements in real-time, the camera, assign materials, assign global lights (ie. sky ...) and mesh emitters. You can also use the shader editor, this one allow you to create your own materials and define how the material react with the light.

• Camera simulation
  You can simulate camera effects through a set of parameters or simply let Spectral Studio handle the parameters for you automatically.
  
  
  True optics and Reflex camera simulation

• Materials
  Spectral Studio is based on the OSL specification (Open Shading Language), it mean that you can simulate advanced material and improve your materials library. By example, this language has been used by some Visual Effects Studios to generate accurate materials for their movies.
