From Hours to Milliseconds: The Power of Real-Time Rendering
In traditional architectural visualization workflows, rendering a single high-quality image can take minutes to hours, and animations require even more time.
Unreal Engine’s real-time ray tracing and Lumen global illumination bring movie-quality visuals without the wait, allowing developers to make changes on the fly and see instant results.
Comparison:
Traditional Renderers: Render frames sequentially, requiring post-processing and long wait times.
Unreal Engine: Uses a game-engine-based real-time rendering approach, allowing changes to be seen immediately.
