Thea Render is a high-quality physical global illumination renderer. It is a unique renderer that can render using state-of-the-art techniques in biased, unbiased, and GPU photorealistic rendering modes.
Thea Presto is an advanced rendering engine that has been written from the ground up and optimized to run simultaneously on GPU (NVIDIA and AMD) and CPU, maximizing your processing power. The engine is tuned for fast interactive rendering. This pushes GPU and CPU computing capabilities to the limit while maintaining Thea Render's high photorealistic quality.
At Thea Render we have created a small number of highly realistic materials using the most accurate physically based models. These models are designed to produce highly energy efficient material combinations.
The physically based material system has features such as an advanced layering system and spectral color selection that are at the heart of the rendering engine. These features allow you to create realistic and convincing renders.
