Description

Houdini was designed from the ground up to empower artists to work freely, create multiple iterations, and quickly share workflows with their colleagues. Houdini stores every action in a node. These nodes are "wired" into networks that define a "recipe", which can be tweaked to improve the outcome, then repeated to create unique results. Houdini's procedural nature is due to the ability of nodes to be saved or to pass information (in the form of attributes) down the chain. Houdini's unique nodes are what make it powerful. However, there are many viewport and shelf tools which allow for artist-friendly interaction. Behind the scenes, Houdini creates the networks and nodes for you. Houdini allows artists to explore new creative paths, as it is easy for them to branch off to explore other solutions.

Description

NVIDIA Omniverse™ serves as a central hub that seamlessly integrates your current 3D workflows, transforming traditional linear pipelines into a dynamic, live-sync creation process that empowers you to design in unprecedented ways and at remarkable speeds. Observe how GeForce RTX 3D creators collaboratively produce an animated short through Omniverse Cloud, utilizing 3D assets from their preferred design and content creation software like Autodesk Maya, Adobe Substance Painter, Unreal Engine, and SideFX Houdini. With NVIDIA Omniverse, Sir Wade Neistadt, who engages with a diverse range of applications, can work without facing any bottlenecks. By combining the Omniverse Platform with an NVIDIA RTX™ A6000 equipped with NVIDIA Studio Drivers, he is able to, as he describes, “bring it all together, illuminate it, render it, and maintain everything in context using RTX rendering—all without the need to export data between applications, ensuring a seamless creative experience." This innovation not only enhances productivity but also fosters collaboration among creators, leading to richer and more intricate projects.
