3S Cloud is a collective of passionate members with a blend of art and technology. This is the reason why our team deeply understands the pain points of 3D artists during the boring time of rendering tasks. Therefore, we are here to tackle and bring a Render Farm for Houdini using Arnold Renderer with SPEED – STABILITY – SATISFACTION (3S).
Render Farm For Houdini using Arnold Renderer
Arnold is based on Monte Carlo Ray Tracing. Its engine is optimized to send billions of spatially incoherent rays throughout a scene. It often uses one level of diffuse interreflection so that light can bounce off of a wall or other object and indirectly illuminate a subject. For complex scenes such as the space station in Elysium, it makes heavy use of instancing. Arnold for Houdini (or HtoA) provides a tight bridge to the Arnold renderer from within the standard Houdini interface. It enables smooth lighting workflows between Houdini and other DCC applications since setups can be exported and shared.
3S Cloud Render Farm is a cloud rendering service supporting Houdini using Arnold Renderer or Mantra, Redshift, V-Ray and other 3D creation suites with renderers/render engines such as Blender, Maya, 3ds Max and so on.
