RenderFarm.NET is an advanced XML webservice that accepts 3D data in the form of XML and allows anyone to render high-resolution 3D animated scenes as movies or images, regardless of hardware. Our networked 3D Render Server software transforms XML data into a variety of images and movie formats including MPEG, BMP, AVI, JPG, TIFF, and PNG. RenderFarm.NET also plugs-in directly to professional 3D Modeling suites such as Alias|Wavefront's Maya to give artists a convenient and powerful option for rendering.
