Phrases
- physically-based rendering
- Monte Carlo rendering
- operates in image space, no knowledge of scene geometry required
- Altus CLI = post-process plugin, made to be integrated in your pipeline management software (Muster, Royal Render, Deadline, etc)
- temporal filtering/cross-frame filtering
Preserve:
- texture detail
- motion blur
- depth of field
- minimize flicker

Instead of altus.sln, you can point directly to the vcxproj file to explicitly build a target (i.e. the CUDA version).
