OSL Camera

 

The OSL Camera is scriptable. You can create custom camera types for any purpose (such as VRImmersively engaging and experiencing depth perception in a three dimensional scene through stereo vision goggles and head-mounted displays. warping) with OSL (Open Shader LanguageA shading language developed by Sony Pictures Imageworks. There are multiple render engines that utilize OSL as it is particularly suited for physically-based renderers.) scripts. It is a flexible camera used to match the rendering to the existing footage. One OSL Camera is one OSL compilation unit, which contains only one shader.

OSL is a standard created by Sony Imageworks. To learn about the generic OSL standard, information is provided from the OSL Readme and PDF documentation. To learn more about scripting within OctaneRender® using the Open Shader Language, refer to The Octane OSL Guide.

 

OSL Camera settings can be accessed from the Render Toolbar > Camera Button > Camera tab.
