What is Altair Inspire Render?

Altair Inspire Render is the new 3D rendering and animation powerhouse for innovative designers, architects and digital artists to produce stunning product presentations faster than ever before.

Quickly create, modify, drag, and drop a variety of materials, add lighting environments to generate real-time images and animations with the integrated, high-quality, physical-based global lighting rendering engine. All in one intelligent and efficient user experience that meets the needs of novice users and experts. Supporting CUDA and OpenCL, Inspire Render uses the latest state-of-the-art graphics processor technology. No dedicated GPU card? No problem, the quick rendering of production by the software's Presto/IR interactive engine allows immediate feedback on production quality, as well as being versatile, fast and fun to use.

Running on Mac OS X and Windows as a standalone product or under Altair's token-based flexible licensing model, Inspire Render unleashes designers' creativity from traditional tool constraints, ensuring the export of robust digital models for product development.

Why inspire render?

Unlimited Versatility

Perform interactive photo-realistic rendering on gpu/CPU with the Presto/IR engine to get stunning images with full progressive core or use the Raytracing engine for faster, better quality rendering and step-by-step animations.

Recalibrate reality

Use the intuitive material system configuration, with physics-based material primitives and Advanced Layering System, to create the most realistic and compelling renderings with precise lighting.

Natural Experience

Created by designers for designers, Inspire Render's workspace is the most natural and immersive environment to bring ideas to life, without messing with panels and parameters.

Main features

Light simulation

Using a strong mathematical structure, the light simulation core performs calculations across the visible spectral space to inspect complex phenomena such as volumetric scattering and spectral dispersion.

Interactive rendering

Get immediate feedback on your scene by navigating and applying materials and lighting. It's fun to set up and speeds up productivity.

Example

Render millions of polygons instantiated without problems due to efficient geometric compression techniques. If a scene exceeds a GPU, run entirely on the CPU.

Eliminate noise

Take advantage of NVIDIA OptiX to deliver fast, unmatched renderings.

Materials library

Drag and drop materials from the built-in comprehensive library or custom construction from a basic material, metal, glass/yolk, coating, metal flakes, emitter or shadow collector.

Open structure

Having I/O interfaces for the most common CAD and CAID tools included at no extra cost, Inspire Render integrates extremely easily with existing workflows.
