OTOY’s Mission:

  • Practical digital holographic* content creation and publishing for everyone

*(Digital Hologram: 8D light field volume + depth + reflectance)

The future of Rendering…

slide-4
SLIDE 4

Rendering in 2020’s may feel a lot like ‘magic’:

  • Photorealism for billions: Cinematic VFX built

into all devices - for free

  • Real-time game engines used even for linear

media (~UE4 in Rogue One)

  • Intuitive spatial UX (~Tilt Brush) powers most

media creation/consumption

2010 … 2012 … 2014 … 2016 … 2018… 2020

1.0 Images 2.0 Animations 3.0 Cinematic VFX 4.0 Real Time ….. (TBD – but AI important)

A decade of GPU rendering phases in ~2 year increments:

3.07

New features:

  • ORBX proxy import/editing
  • Full standalone UX now works from plug-ins
  • Full Operator nodes – textures, logic, math, vectors
  • Time, Frequency transform control
  • New baking system for real time viewport
slide-15
SLIDE 15

3.07

New features:

  • Native C API – imager, geometry, compute, UX nodes
  • Render Target->Texture for biased/baked rendering
  • Render Jobs can work across both ORC/local
  • Export and Import FBX and glTF (1.0)
  • Fake (but fast) volumetric spot lights (i.e. Unity)

Modules

Native C/C++ API for procedural geometry, asset, compute nodes:

slide-22
SLIDE 22

Module Examples

Experimental Vector Displacement Module:

slide-23
SLIDE 23

Module Examples

Native 3rd party module API can expand 3.x for a very long time:

  • UDIM (currently only in MODO 3.06 plug-in)
  • PTEX (w/ face primID support in core)
  • OpenFX C wrapper (Foundry/Nuke) – e.g. NeatVideo
  • Physics, dynamics, IK modules - e.g. bullet, flex, CL 1.2
  • New script node language VMs – e.g. C#, JS, Python
slide-24
SLIDE 24

Module Examples

Native 3rd party module API can expand 3.x for a very long time:

  • Custom mesh attribute mapping at runtime
  • 3rd party scene I/O – e.g. USD, glTF 2.0
  • 3rd party material I/O - MaterialX, MDL, OCIO
  • Ext. C++ asset editors: Substance, Houdini, Unity, LLVM
  • Viewport adaptive asset loading / filters
slide-25

Cross Compiler

Cross compiler:

  • Mac OS (AMD GPU) – top priority
  • CPU (x86) fallback (Linux/Mac/Win)
slide-26

Cross Compiler

GPU (Intel) = 4x speed on same x86 CPU (Windows 10)

OSL MetaData integration in ORBX node graph:

string label Provides a name displayed on the GUI for the variable string help Provides a description for the pin when you hover your mouse over the pin string page Allows you to group different pins under the group name you have specified string widget By default, Octane will decide what kind of widget you use for your pin through your variable type. However, in special cases you can specify the type of widget to use. We have implemented "boolean", "checkBox", for int type so you can use a checkbox instead of a slider for the integer value. Alternatively, you can specify an int variable to use "mapper" for selecting enumerations. float min, max Allows you to specify the range for a float type variable int min, max Allows you to specify the range for a int type variable float/ int sensitivity Allows you to specify the steps for a float/int type variable int slidermin Allows you to specify the minimum slider value (this is different to min), it's for the GUI minimum. int slidermax Allows you to specify the minimum slider value (this is different to min), it's for the GUI maximum. float slidermin Same as slidermin for int. float slidermax Same as slidermax for int.

ORC

ORC

ORC is coming out of test drive after 3.06 OctaneBench:

  • ORC subscription is sold just like any other OR plug-in
  • Includes BYO license for custom 3rd party cloud

workflows (e.g. Deadline)

  • $5 buckets = 400 OctaneBench/Hour (e.g. per frame)

– local -> cloud value is much simpler to estimate

  • Set job ETA >24h or set max $/frame to reduce costs
  • 3rd party render farms can bid on $5 buckets via ORC

SDK (similar to Octane plug-in SDK) – if offer is better than 400 OB/Hr (and reliable) it’s a win 

  • Auto-Human IK body and face tracking in real time
  • Can be tested on FB 6DOF and LightStage data
  • Auto-vegetation/terrain scattering from video/images
  • language / predictive input-> ORBX scene, material
