Realtime rendering gets more & more amazing

This video is, incredibly, said to be rendered in realtime (30fps), though I don’t know on what hardware. (My DreamWorks Animation vet friend says it’s likely running on a workstation-class computer w/ one of the new Nvidia Titan X graphics cards; total system cost around $25k.)

The kite cinematic created in Unreal Engine 4 features a diverse and beautifully realized 100 square mile landscape. Everything you see was generated in real-time by Unreal Engine 4 at 30fps and includes fully dynamic lighting, cinematic post effects and procedurally placed trees and foliage.

  1. This is very good, very good. There are so many new techniques, I am constantly smiling. Who will pay to do it? and for what end? We need more participation from government and private business (like Google?) to help this grow and expand to be enjoyed and stimulated by more people. From this is the future.

  2. After a little research I think this new Titan X may have the power to push a real 3D video, in other words a hologram in full color and sound, 360 visual. A computer with no screen.
