  • TetrahedralVolume now generalized to take both tet and hex data, now called
    UnstructuredVolume
  • New function for creating materials (ospNewMaterial2) which takes the
    renderer type string, not a renderer instance (the old version is now
    deprecated)
  • New tonemapper PixelOp for tone mapping final frames
  • Streamlines now support per-vertex radii and smooth interpolation
  • ospray_sg headers are now installed alongside the SDK
  • Core OSPRay ispc device now implemented as a module
    • Devices which implement the public API are no longer required to link
      the dependencies to core OSPRay (e.g. Embree v2.x)
    • By default, ospInit will load the ispc module if a device was not
      created via --osp:mpi or --osp:device:[name]
  • MPI devices can now accept an existing world communicator instead of always
    creating their own

      extended with new scene data importers via modules or the SDK

    • New options in the ospExampleViewer GUI to showcase new features
      • SRGB frame buffers, tone mapping, etc.
