ART has updated the RenderDrive software that serves as a bridge to its hardware ray-tracing rendering system. RenderPipe MAX (RenderDrive to Max interface) includes new features such as improved sampling of area lights and custom camera shaders (which can be used to create specific camera and lens descriptions, such as camera lens for IMAX). RenderPipe RIB (generic RenderMan compliant interface) now offers support for RenderMan displacement shaders and deformation blur, among other features.
