Accelerating Blender Animation Rendering with NVIDIA GPUs

In the field of decentralized computing, innovation knows no limits. It's the collective efforts of talented individuals like Norbert, a Golem Network community member, and a skilled software developer, that continue to push the boundaries of what's possible. A few months ago, Norbert introduced a groundbreaking proof of concept that unlocked the potential of NVIDIA GPUs on the Golem Network. ๐Ÿ–ฅ๏ธ๐Ÿ’ก

Tapping into the Potential of NVIDIA GPUs

Norbert's proof of concept has opened up a world of possibilities for Golem. Among the numerous potential use cases, this feature can be used to render a Blender animation on the Golem Network. Rendering complex animations on a single machine can be a time-consuming process, but with the power of NVIDIA GPUs harnessed by Golem Network, this process can be significantly accelerated. ๐Ÿ•“๐ŸŽž๏ธ

A Rewarded Effort

Norbert independently developed this Blender addon, and his efforts were further recognized and supported with a grant of 20,000 GLMs. ๐Ÿ’ธ

Whatโ€™s Next?

โžก๏ธ We're excited about supporting the development of the portal allowing rendering blender files on GPU via browser. We're actively seeking a community member who would like to join Norbert as a front-end developer to collaborate on this project (and get paid). Reach out to us on Discord if you'd like to get involved! ๐ŸŒ๐Ÿค
