In part I of the Evolution of Resolution, we discussed CGA, EGA,VGA/SVGA and progressive scan. In part II, we need to get into the whirlwind history of computer graphics, but first, let’s conclude our discussion of resol[...]
Rendering
Why our BOXX computer rendering articles a must read? Because from 3D design and animation, to VFX, motion media, and CAD, whatever is created, must be rendered. So whether its CPU or GPU, on your workstation or a dedicated system, using V-Ray, Arnold, KeyShot, Blender, or some other render engine, when the topic is rendering, BOXX is your rendering authority.

Evolution of Resolution- Part I
BOXX builds workstations and servers purpose-built for your creative applications. As such, we are heavily involved in rendering, as all that is created must also be rendered. Since I arrived at BOXX in 2008, I have witn[...]
There is a clear trend these days among software vendors to incorporate more and more GPU acceleration into their products. In fact, NVIDIA recently compiled a list of hundreds of software packages spanning over a d[...]
There’s always a bit of lag between the time a revolutionary hardware solution comes out and the time it takes for the software world to adapt. Thankfully, we’re at a point where the hardware—NVIDIA’s latest line of RTX [...]
It’s been quite a while since we discussed this topic.1 This time I wanted to try something a little different. Let’s start with a simple question: what causes faster render times? The answer, essentially, is to solve [...]
Corona’s renderer is well known for its ease of use, speed, and flexibility, and the company has kept those vital elements in mind as they update their beloved product to version 3. Some of the new features and improveme[...]
It’s easy to understand why tracing each individual particle of light as it travels from a light source and bounces from object to object is unrealistic. But even in the world of rendering, in which we use calculations t[...]
Chaos Group has long had one of the leading rendering software pieces in the market, but it is poised in 2018 to take advantage of the ability of GPUs and CPUs to work in tandem to maximize one another’s potential. [...]
