Bunkspeed SHOT Ships for 3D Rendering
 CARLSBAD,
CA, Feb 04, 2010 - Bunkspeed, Inc, a leading global provider of rendering
and visualization software for design, engineering, and marketing, announced
today it has selected iray rendering technology from mental images to
power its next generation software to be called Bunkspeed SHOT - the
company's revolutionary easy to use, real-time photorealistic rendering
application. Bunkspeed SHOT vastly simplifies the complex process of
3D object rendering, putting the power of photorealistic imagery directly
into the hands of designers, photographers, engineers, architects, creative
agencies, and all creators of 3D content.
Bunkspeed was the first to offer an intuitive "virtual digital camera" in
the form of interactive real-time ray tracing with its introduction of
HyperShot, whose simple and elegant workflow enabled digital designers to
bring their creations to realistic life, in minutes not hours-freeing them
from the complex technical processes so often related to 3D rendering tools,
and with much better results.
Bunkspeed SHOT’s ability to use either the CPU, GPU or both, promises to
be faster than ever before, scaling seamlessly on one or more machines to
make optimal use of any particular hardware configuration. Bunkspeed SHOT’s
integration with mental images’ iray rendering technology, fully exploits
the powerful parallel processing power of NVIDIA CUDA-enabled GPUs,
encouraging more rapid iterations with stunning photorealistic accuracy.
Tightly combining the intuitive and interactive Bunkspeed SHOT workflow
with the reality matching accuracy of iray materials and lighting, allows
creative users in any field, on any hardware, to intuitively produce the
highest quality image output without the steep learning curves of other
rendering solutions.
"The combination of Bunkspeed SHOT and iray is an extremely exciting
development for us and the industry. It demonstrates our standing
commitment to our customers to constantly innovate and improve our products,
and to remain the leader in accessible and truly easy-to-use photorealistic
rendering for all creators of 3D content." said Anthony Duca, COO of
Bunkspeed.
“mental images is very pleased that Bunkspeed has chosen iray as their
official rendering technology,” says Randy Ochs, Vice President of Business
Development and Sales, North America for mental images. “We are excited that
iray will allow users of the new Bunkspeed SHOT to create accurate,
photorealistic 3D images by harnessing the power of the GPU and NVIDIA CUDA
architecture for unbelievably fast photorealism. We welcome Bunkspeed to
our list of OEM Partners who have selected mental images technology to
enable greater rendering performance in their products. ”
Bunkspeed SHOT integrated with iray rendering technology - is a
combination of unprecedented power, elegance and accuracy. Bunkspeed is
raising the bar once again, enabling users to continue to "Render them
speechless".
