The Foundry Katana是一款专业的3D渲染工具，允许艺术家去自定义和控制外观、灯光，同时保持性能，即使在处理大的数据集。通过使用基于规则的方法，它的操作并不具有破坏性，因此可以让建模、外观开发、动画和灯光团队并行工作。

KATANA提供高效，协同，以资产为基础的方法来查看开发和照明，为您提供创造性的范围和可扩展性，以满足当今最苛刻的视觉效果项目的需求。

KATANA的灵活的基于节点的框架，多线程核心引擎和与渲染的紧密集成使您可以更快速地迭代，在较短时间内在高复杂度的拍摄中获得出色的结果。通过丰富的API和脚本选项，KATANA可以轻松集成到现有的管道中，让您按照您所选择的渲染器，着色器库和其他工具的方式进行工作。

KATANA offers a highly efficient, collaborative, asset-based approach to look development and lighting that gives you the creative scope and scalability to meet the needs of today’s most demanding visual effects projects.

KATANA’s flexible node-based framework, multi-threaded core engine and tight integration with rendering lets you iterate faster to get great-looking results on high-complexity shots in less time. With extensive API and scripting options, KATANA integrates effortlessly into your existing pipeline, letting you work the way you want with the renderer, shader library and other tools you choose.

Why KATANA?

- Create and share ‘recipes’ for lighting and looks that can easily be reused across any number of shots, characters or other assets

- Construct custom processing graphs for 3D scenes as easily as you would a compositing script with KATANA’s natural node-based approach

- Scale your pipeline to handle extremely high scene complexity with a multi-threaded core engine and deferred processing

- Choose from a number of industry-leading renderers supported out of the box, or add any renderer for a deeply integrated plug-in

- Customize KATANA to fit your pipeline and processes with extensive public C++ APIs and scripting options
