Open Shading Language

+ +
+ +

Open Shading Language (OSL) is a small but rich language for programmable + shading in advanced global illumination renderers and other applications, + ideal for describing materials, lights, displacement, and pattern + generation. It uses LLVM to JIT complex shader networks to x86 code at + runtime.

+ +

OSL was developed by Sony Pictures Imageworks for use in its in-house + renderer used for feature film animation and visual effects, and is + distributed as open source software with the "New BSD" license. Its project + home page is: + http://github.com/imageworks/OpenShadingLanguage/
