Intel® oneAPI Rendering Toolkit

Powerful Libraries for High-Fidelity Rendering and Visualization Applications

  

Photorealistic Rendering That Scales

The Intel® oneAPI Rendering Toolkit (Render Kit) is designed to accelerate these types of workloads with a set of rendering and ray-tracing libraries to create high-performance, high-fidelity visual experiences. With the libraries, get the most from powerful Intel® hardware by optimizing CPU and future Xe Architecture or GPU rendering performance at any scale. Creators, scientists, and engineers can push the boundaries of visualization by using the toolkit to develop amazing studio animation and visual effects or to create scientific and industrial visualizations.

Applications include:

  • Digital content creation
  • Professional rendering
  • Animation
  • Computer-aided design, architectural engineering
  • Scientific visualization
  • Gaming VR and AR

What Customers Are Saying

“An example of this adoption of technology from Intel was Tangent’s incorporation of Embree, Intel’s open-source ray-tracing core. This had a very dramatic, positive impact on production of Next Gen, resulting in performance figures such as a 10 to 15 overall decrease in render time, with greater decreases witnessed on scenes with heavy volumetrics and motion blur [and] 400 to 500 decrease on frames that exhibited extreme motion blur.”

 – Jeff Bell, president, Tangent Studios

“We found Intel Embree ray-tracing kernels to be the best efficient alternative to our legacy code to improve the performance.  This drastically improved multithreaded and vectorization capabilities that reduced our rendering time helping Illumination Mac Guff and increased the quality and richness of our images.”

– Xavier Bec, head of research and development, Illumination Animation

“By working with Intel on the Intel oneAPI Rendering Toolkit, we’ve been able to leverage and take advantage of its open-source platform. This has meant we have been able to rapidly research and develop proof of concepts that focus on cost-efficient methods for the creation [of] rendered images and user experiences for the future.”

– Paul Chapman, virtual media manager, Bentley Motors Limited

"V-Ray* is the industry’s gold standard for ray traced rendering and Intel has been there for us from the beginning with high-performance multicore processors and optimization software. We’re now delivering on-demand rendering with Chaos Cloud where Intel continues to provide the scalability that we count on."

— Phillip Miller, vice president of product management, Chaos Group

Case Study

"On the recently released Modo* 14.1, our customers are reporting amazing rendering performance with Intel Embree ray-tracing library and Intel® Open Image Denoise that previously would have only been available through high-end GPUs. This really packs a one-two punch to those costly render times on CPU hardware that all our users can appreciate."

– Shane Griffith, director of product-digital design, Foundry

"KeyShot integrates Intel® Open Image Denoise for one-click, high-performance image denoising with results that are simply incredible. Through this technology, KeyShot's reputation for speed and quality is complemented with a level of noise reduction and feature preservation that aids the visualization process and accelerates the product delivery cycle.”

– Derek Cicero, Vice President of Products, Luxion (Makers of KeyShot)

"Visualization is the key to better simulations. So, by visualizing the data in real time, we get faster development timescales, as well as much better insight."

— Dr. Paul Shellard, professor of cosmology and director of the Stephen Hawking Centre for Theoretical Cosmology at the University of Cambridge

Case Study

"Atipa and Intel’s infrastructure make it possible to train the next generation of visualization experts with advanced tools and [the] software infrastructure they will encounter in most advanced industry settings."

— Michael E. Papka, professor of computer science, Northern Illinois University (NIU) 

Case Study

“TACC applauds the Intel Rendering Toolkit and our long standing collaboration to help us deliver Professional Visualization that enables the wide availability of high fidelity and interactive visualization for many more users."

— Dr. Paul Navratil, director of visualization, Texas Advanced Computing Center (TACC)
