Advanced Rendering Toolkit
Note: This is not the official ART website, but just a placeholder until the real site is done!
The real site will go online as soon as we think that the software is ready to be shown to outsiders, i.e. when all the major bugs and omissions have been fixed and when there is something resembling a documentation. Unfortunately, we do not know when this will be the case (but there is still a chance that we'll beat Duke Nukem Forever, Windows Longhorn and/or GNU Hurd to a release... :-).
And in case you have been here before: ART is not dead (as this fossilised webpage would seemingly suggest), but has actually been considerably improved during the past years - we are slowly getting to the point where light is visible at the end of the tunnel. It's just that doing webpages is somewhere way down on our list of tasks as long as the toolkit is not released yet, especially since some details might change until the release.
As a kind of proof that we're still underway you can also take a look at the project flyer we hand out to visitors at the institute now. It sums up the key features of ART a bit more succinctly than these dated webpages.
These pages are just a slightly beefed-up mirror of the rather sketchy internal project pages we had so far at the Institute of Computer Graphics at the Vienna University of Technology (in Austria, Europe), where ART is being developed. Especially the gallery section is not representative of what ART can really do. However, we figured that the little information that they contain is still better than none at all, and we will improve this sooner or later.
