Blender (software) - Wikipedia. Blender is a professional, free and open- source. D computer graphics software toolset used for creating animated films, visual effects, art, 3. D printed models, interactive 3. D applications and video games.
Blender's features include 3. D modeling, UV unwrapping, texturing, raster graphics editing, rigging and skinning, fluid and smoke simulation, particle simulation, soft body simulation, sculpting, animating, match moving, camera tracking, rendering, motion graphics, video editing and compositing. It further features an integrated game engine. History. The name Blender was inspired by a song by Yello, from the album Baby. Today, Blender is free, open- source software that is—apart from the Blender Institute's two full- time and two part- time employees—developed by the community.
However, they never exercised this option and suspended it indefinitely in 2. New functionality was based on Google Summer of Code 2. In particular the Node- System (Material- and Compositor) has been implemented.
Old version, no longer supported: 2. February 1. 6, 2. Sculpt- Modeling as a result of Google Summer of Code 2.
Old version, no longer supported: 2. May 1. 9, 2. 00. 8With the production of Big Buck Bunny Blender set to produce grass quickly and efficiently. New window and file manager, new interface, new Python API, and new animation system. Improvements in sculpting. Smoke rendering improved to reduce blockiness. Cycles performance improvements.
Nevertheless, they put out one more release, 2. As a sort- of easter egg, a last personal tag, the artists and developers decided to add a 3.
D model of a chimpanzee head. It was created by Willem- Paul van Overbruggen (SLi. D3), who named it Suzanne after the orangutan in the Kevin Smith film Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back. Suzanne is Blender's alternative to more common test models such as the Utah Teapot and the Stanford Bunny. A low- polygon model with only 5. Suzanne is often used as a quick and easy way to test material, animation, rigs, texture, and lighting setups and is also frequently used in joke images.
The largest Blender contest gives out an award called the Suzanne Award. Due to Blender's open source nature, other programs have tried to take advantage of its success by repackaging and selling cosmetically- modified versions of it. Examples include Illusion. Mage, 3. DMofun, 3. DMagix, and Fluid Designer. Though it is often distributed without extensive example scenes found in some other programs. Among its capabilities are: Support for a variety of geometric primitives, including polygon meshes, fast subdivision surface modeling, Bezier curves, NURBS surfaces, metaballs, icospheres, multi- res digital sculpting (including dynamic topology, maps baking, remeshing, resymetrize, decimation), outline font, and a new n- gon modeling system called B- mesh.
Internal render engine with scanline rendering, indirect lighting, and ambient occlusion that can export in a wide variety of formats. A pathtracer render engine called Cycles, which can take advantage of the GPU for rendering. Cycles supports the Open Shading Language since Blender 2. It also allows the creation of stand- alone, real- time applications ranging from architectural visualization to video games. A fully integrated node- based compositor within the rendering pipeline accelerated with Open. CL. Procedural and node- based textures, as well as texture painting, projective painting, vertex painting, weight painting and dynamic painting. Real- time control during physics simulation and rendering.
Camera and object tracking. User interface. Object mode is used to manipulate individual objects as a unit, while Edit mode is used to manipulate the actual object data. For example, Object Mode can be used to move, scale, and rotate entire polygon meshes, and Edit Mode can be used to manipulate the individual vertices of a single mesh. There are also several other modes, such as Vertex Paint, Weight Paint, and Sculpt Mode.
Hotkey usage. Most of the commands are accessible via hotkeys. There are also comprehensive GUI menus.
Numeric input. Numeric buttons can be . Both sliders and number buttons can be constrained to various step sizes with modifiers like the Ctrl and Shift keys. Python expressions can also be typed directly into number entry fields, allowing mathematical expressions to specify values. Workspace management. The Blender GUI builds its own tiled windowing system on top of one or multiple windows provided by the underlying platform. One platform window (often sized to fill the screen) is divided into sections and subsections that can be of any type of Blender's views or window- types.
The user can define multiple layouts of such Blender windows, called screens, and switch quickly between them by selecting from a menu or with keyboard shortcuts. Each window- type's own GUI elements can be controlled with the same tools that manipulate 3. D view. For example, one can zoom in and out of GUI- buttons using similar controls one zooms in and out in the 3. D viewport. The GUI viewport and screen layout is fully user- customizable. It is possible to set up the interface for specific tasks such as video editing or UV mapping or texturing by hiding features not used for the task. Blender 2. 7. 6b is the last supported release for Windows XP. This is due to the reworked animation subsystem introduced in Blender 2.
Loading meshes stored in post 2. This is due to the introduction of BMesh, a more versatile mesh format. All scenes, objects, materials, textures, sounds, images, post- production effects for an entire animation can be stored in a single .
Data loaded from external sources, such as images and sounds, can also be stored externally and referenced through either an absolute or relative pathname. An object in Blender consists of multiple data blocks – for example, what the user would describe as a polygon mesh consists of at least an Object and a Mesh data block, and usually also a Material and many more, linked together. This allows various data blocks to refer to each other. There may be, for example, multiple Objects that refer to the same Mesh, and making subsequent editing of the shared mesh result in shape changes in all Objects using this Mesh. Objects, meshes, materials, textures etc. Blender's VSE has many features including effects like Gaussian Blur, color grading, Fade and Wipe transitions, and other video transformations. However, there is no multi- core support for rendering video with VSE.
Web. GL authoring. Export can be performed with a single click, even as a standalone web page. There are two GPU rendering modes: CUDA, which is the preferred method for NVIDIA graphics cards; and Open. CL, which supports rendering on AMD graphics cards. Multiple GPUs are also supported, which can be used to create a render farm – although having multiple GPUs doesn't increase the available memory because each GPU can only access its own memory. Cycles currently supports a path tracing integrator with direct light sampling.
It works well for various lighting setups, but is not as suitable for caustics and some other complex lighting situations. Rays are traced from the camera into the scene, bouncing around until they find a light source such as a lamp, an object emitting light, or the world background. To find lamps and surfaces emitting light, both indirect light sampling (letting the ray follow the surface BSDF) and direct light sampling (picking a light source and tracing a ray towards it) are used.
At each hit it bounces light in one direction and picks one light to receive lighting from. This makes each individual sample faster to compute, but typically requires more samples to clean up the noise. The alternative is a branched path tracing integrator which at the first hit splits the path for different surface components and takes all lights into account for shading instead of just one.
