We’ve not had hands on experience to comment on this properly though.

While rendering looks fast, one has to consider the time taken to upload scenes to the cloud in the first place and bandwidth could be a bottleneck for some users. You simply select the iRay renderer, click remote render services, log into Project Pandora and away you go. This is all made possible with the help of mental images iRay, an Nvidia owned technology that is built into 3ds Max 2012. But instead of doing this on CPUs (Central Processing Units), Pandora’s cloud servers use Nvidia GPUs (Graphics Processing Units). With the help of graphics specialist Nvidia, 3ds Max models can now be rendered in the cloud. Send the model up to the cloud and back comes a shiny new render for you to show off to your colleagues and clients.Īutodesk’s latest Labs project, Pandora, does just that. Imagine being able to render models in a snap when all you own is a low powered PC, laptop or tablet. Project Pandora: cloud based rendering for 3ds Max using Nvidia GPUs
