If you are is it going to be in a far off future or is Mitsuba 4 going to have some sort of “beta” gpu feature?

Please let me know if you have any technical questions (I am traveling for the next two weeks but will try to respond promptly)

Hope to have soon, some material for showing :).

To my surprise, it works perfectly though, that in the download page specifies that requires Windows Vista or higher. It may be because I have installed the environment MSVC+ + 2008 and 2010?

I suppose it really depends on what you state as goals of the grant. If you explicitly get paid for writing software, then all is well.

In the case of Mitsuba, I’d say that the research-related plugin releases are more of a byproduct of the research. If you already have a working implementation, the extra time to make it public is small compared to the effort of coming up with the idea and making it work in the first place. Of course it will be the opposite in some other parts of CS (e.g. distributed systems), where releasing something that other people can use is a serious project.

Hats off to you for having the generosity to implement the fruits of your research into free software. I am not aware if this is common practice in computer science, but it should be.

My question: Is grant money only for papers, or can you get paid for producing something like Mitsuba?

But no luck with instances. Seems to hard for my artistic brain :/

although we are anxiously waiting for bidir :)

The amount of noise will be the same if it is modeled using triangles.

I haven’t heard from the person who was planning to implement it.

I know from manual that sphere area light primitive gives less noise than sphere polygonal model. Is the same true for rectangle area light primitive?
Will it give less variance than rectangle polygon model?

I hope to see sss in future. I is basically the only thing I’m waiting for right now.
Thanks for material blending and specular texture roughness support.
