If you’re a developer interested in working with the CausticRT real-time raytracing system, but haven’t gotten an actual CausticOne card to work with, you should head on over to their website and register for their developer program where you might get a chance to try out their new Emulation SDK.
Caustic Graphics has created a “software fallback” that allows developers to run a cross platform emulated version of CausticRT, without the CausticOne™ raytracing accelerator card. Within the next few months we will be offering our CausticRT Emulation SDK as a free download for developers to create new or port their existing software applications that utilize raytracing. Applications developed on the CausticRT Emulation SDK are fully compatible with CausticRT. Target markets include but are not limited to, Film, Video, Games, Transportation, Education, Consumer Products, Architecture, Engineering, and Construction.
In addition to the SDK, you’ll get free access to their developer forum to discuss CausticRT, CausticOne, CausticGL, and see some fine examples of the system in use.
