RenderMan is both a software and an application programming interface API for network distributed rendering of complex and potentially ray traced three dimensional views, employing a render farm of many client computers. The clients do not require 3D graphics cards, but may benefit from them if they are available. Rendering of ray traced scenes and animations containing optical reflection, colored lights and colored surfaces, hair fur, and lens distortions can take hours, days, weeks, months, or years for a single computer to process, depending on the complexity, detail, and size of the individual images. For animations, the frame rate and total time period of the animation sequence can also greatly extend the total render time. The render process can be accelerated by subdividing the overall individual images into for example 10x10 pixel patches and distributing the calculation of each patch across a large collection of other networked computers. For extremely complex images and very large server farms, individual pixels can be distributed for processing by each render client.
