Software engineer ( C++ ) @ Chaos Group

Project: Corona Renderer,
Relevant links: Corona Renderer, Chaos group, ARCHICAD

Corona Renderer is a modern high-performance (un)biased photorealistic renderer, available for Autodesk 3ds Max, MAXON Cinema 4D, and as a standalone application.

In this period I worked mainly on the implementation of Corona Renderer into BIM software - ARCHICAD. The main goal was to bring the plugin from the early alpha stage to a commercial release. It was necessary to closely communicate with the ARCHICAD community to get feedback on existing features and implement the new features coming simultaneously from the constantly evolving Corona Renderer core and the community of architects and archviz studios.
The development of the plugin was canceled during the COVID-19 pandemic.
