3Delight, now 3DelightNSI, is a 3D computer graphics software that runs on Windows, macOS (both Intel and Apple Silicon) and Linux (both x86-64 and AWS Graviton). Developed by Illumination Research Pte Ltd, it is both a photorealistic and NPR path tracing offline renderer based on its NSI API scene description and on Open_Shading_Language for shading. It comes with supported, open source plug-in integrations for several DCC applications, such as Autodesk Maya, Houdini, Cinema4D, Katana, OpenUSD Hydra, and a democratic free license that allows for commercial use. It also provides a fully distributed cloud rendering service called 3Delight Cloud.
