Autodesk is a major contributor to the Universal Scene Description ecosystem, including the Hydra rendering framework. We'll describe our Hydra-based viewport system and the Storm and Aurora render delegates. Storm, a high-performance rasterizer originally open-sourced by Pixar, has received significant contributions from Autodesk. We've added DX12 and WebGPU backends to the HGI layer and improved the Vulkan support. Aurora is a real-time path tracer open-sourced by Autodesk, leveraging DXR and Vulkan Ray Tracing.
