Intel Open Image Denoise Wins Scientific and Technical Award

Intel Open Image Denoise will get a Technical Achievement Award from the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences tomorrow for its excellent AI-based ray traced image denoising

Add a good denoiser like Intel Open Image Denoise to the renderer to trace fewer rays without losing image quality and reduce rendering time

Intel Open Image Denoise uses AI neural networks to filter out ray tracing noise to speed up rendering and real-time previews during the creative process

Intel Open Image Denoise operates under the Apache 2.0 license and is a component of the Intel Rendering Toolkit

The widely used, highly effective, and  detail-preserving U-Net architecture provides its basic technology, improving the industry’s standard for computer-generated imagery

Intel Open Image Denoise uses NVIDIA GPU tensor cores, Intel Xe Matrix Extensions (Intel XMX), and CPU instruction sets SSE4, AVX2, AVX-512, and NEON to denoise well

Intel Open Image Denoise may operate with limited capabilities, perform less than optimally, or become unstable if you use outdated driver versions
