TL;DR of the article, generated automatically.

Fenris Creations is open-sourcing CORTAO, a new ambient occlusion technique for its Carbon engine.

  • What it is: a screen space ambient occlusion method using ray tracing, up to 32 rays per pixel.
  • Claimed gain: about a quarter of the square error of existing techniques, at similar cost, per Isheden.
  • Release: two open-source versions, one MIT-licensed reference, one in Carbon.
  • Tools: open-sourcing pushed from end of 2026 to Q1 next year.
