Maxon
A high-performance, GPU-based renderer for producing photorealistic 3D images and animations with fast interactive previews and efficient multi-GPU support.

This GPU-driven rendering engine accelerates production by simulating realistic lighting, materials and effects while cutting render times through adaptive sampling and interactive previews.

It integrates with major 3D applications (Cinema 4D, Maya, Houdini, Blender, and others), supports Windows, macOS and Linux, and accommodates multi-GPU setups to scale performance for complex scenes.

Recent updates add faster texture displacement, a UV projection context node for efficient material adjustments, expanded IES light controls, and native support for newer AMD GPUs—making it suitable for archviz, VFX, animation and product visualization workflows.
