A strategic alliance brings together the rendering solutions of Lightworks and Caustic Graphics, makers of the CausticRT ray-tracing application.
Also part of the deal is the CausticGL API, which enables developers to simplify the creation of ray-tracing renderers. Lightworks’ customers will be able to use the Caustic technology when it comes to market next year.
Caustic also will be part of Lightworks Artisan, a new application that will be unveiled at the company’s booth at SIGGRAPH in New Orleans.
‘As early adopters of this technology, we’re really excited about our partnership with Caustic Graphics as we believe their product has the potential to offer real value to the marketplace,’ said David Forrester, CEO at Lightworks. ‘We see this collaboration as a key development in the state-of-the-art technology incorporated within Lightworks and invite people to watch a demo of this technology on our booth at SIGGRAPH.’
