rendervous / rendervous

Physically-based Differentiable Renderer integrated with torch and backed with Vulkan API

Rendervous - Rendering and Learning and vice versa

Rendervous is a project designed primarily for academic purposes. The core idea is the integration of GPU rendering capabilities including ray-tracing (Vulkan) with deep learning (Pytorch).

As a result you have a differentiable renderer that can be included in learning models and vice versa, learning models that can be included as renderer components (materials, scattering functions, parameters, etc).

Dependencies

• torch
• cffi
• pywin32 (Windows)
• cuda-python (if cuda device can be used)

Secondary dependencies

• matplotlib (most of the offline-rendering examples)

Interactive examples

• imgui
• glfw (for interactive examples)
