Autodesk Arnold

Arnold is packed with professional rendering features tailored for film, TV, advertising, and design visualization. It features high-quality ray tracing, subsurface scattering, and motion blur, deep EXR rendering, and adaptive sampling to make renders faster and less noisy. This also supports stylized NPR (non-photorealistic rendering) with a built-in Arnold Toon Shader, which is perfect in animation studios and comic-style productions. It also has AOVs (Arbitrary Output Variables), light path expressions (LPEs), and robust denoisers (OptiX, OIDN, and Arnold Denoiser), which allow simplifying post-production. Real-time previews of interactive rendering also allow a speedier and more natural process of look development. Another benefit is that Arnold GPU mode is enabled with NVIDIA RTX, which means that artists will be able to experience the speed benefits of a hardware-accelerated solution without compromising the quality of output. You can render fog, fire, glass, metallic surfaces, or other terrains using Arnold, which simulates the light transport and material interaction in a manner accurate enough to produce photorealistic results. It is also highly integrated with Maya and 3ds Max, so it is easy to render it out in your favorite modeling or animation environment.
