ProWalker GPU still-frame by Nick Harvey

Welcome to ProWalker GPU

In ProWalker GPU we've applied the most powerful unbiased path-tracing and denoise AI technology provided by NVIDIA's Iray and applied it to a SketchUp extension and companion product for SU Podium V2.6.

On Sale until September 1, 2022 for $79.00 USD

This means higher quality rendering

• Iray Photoreal is a high-performance, unbiased path-tracer that generates photorealistic imagery through physically based light interaction.
• Iray Interactive uses intelligent approximation algorithms to maximize performance and realism while minimizing noise.
• NVIDIA's AI-based Denoiser performs predictive noise reduction during the pathtracing process, speeding the process to a final image or frame by four or five times.

Immediate Visual Feedback

Progressive rendering means you don't have to wait for a frame to finish to decide whether it looks right!

Make changes and watch the viewport update immediately.

Preview your lighting, test different backgrounds, then simply let ProWalker refine the image to completion.

Four different render modes to suit your deadlines

Flexible speed/quality options from simple and fast to fully photorealistic when you have a bit more time to spend. Read about samples/quality in Iray

GPU Acceleration

Iray harnesses the power of supported NVIDIA graphics cards and CUDA computing to accelate the render process.

Hardware questions: ProWalker is designed with a strong emphasis on GPU based rendering. Although the plugin will fall back to the CPU if a supported NVIDIA graphics card is not present, Iray is significantly less efficient without GPU acceleration.
