About

Mandelbulber2 creatively generates three-dimensional fractals. Explore trigonometric, hyper-complex, Mandelbox, IFS, and many other 3D fractals. Render with a great palette of customizable materials to create stunning images and videos.

Features:

  • High-Performance computing with multiple graphics accelerator cards (multi-GPU support via OpenCL)
  • Mathematical Models and Monte Carlo Algorithms for photo-realistic scenes
  • Enlightening Documentation
  • Renders trigonometric, hyper-complex, Mandelbox, IFS, and many other 3D fractals
  • Complex 3D raymarching: hard shadows, ambient occlusion, depth of field, translucency and refraction, etc.
  • Rich GUI in Qt 5 environment
  • Unlimited image resolution on 64-bit systems
  • Program developed for ARM (experimental), x86 and x64 CPUs (Linux, Windows, macOS)
  • Simple 3D navigator
  • Distributed Network Rendering
  • Key-frame animation for all parameters with different interpolations
  • Material management
  • Texture mapping (color, luminosity, diffusion, normal maps, displacement)
  • Exporting of 3D objects
  • Rendering queue
  • Command line interface for headless systems
