Render Token (RNDR) will make the process of rendering and streaming intricate virtual works easier for all users. It will allow complex GPU-based render jobs to be distributed and processed on a peer-to-peer network, making the transactional process of rendering and streaming 3D environments, models, and objects much simpler for end users. Furthermore, the Render Network will eventually evolve to include crowd sourced 3D projects to digital rights management, creating a vibrant new marketplace to fund digital ideas, assets and applications that anyone can access and leverage.
Continued to enable cloud rendering services on the orc.otoy.com website with the ability to exchange RNDR™ for rendering services that are kept track of and facilitated by the blockchain. Services initially handled by OTOY® or third party servers and set the framework for a reliable transition into the peer-to-peer framework of rendering. Alpha testing on Render Network local nodes.
2018
Development of back-end decentralized network that will handle processing of the rendering and streaming jobs via the Ethereum blockchain. Alpha testing on the testnet of the decentralized, peer-to-peer network. Integrate RNDR into that network.
2019
Phase III-A: Invite Genesis and Beta list members (in that order) to test network functionality and provide feedback. Testing will be based on 10 pre-determined scenes.
Phase III-B: Artists can upload their own scenes. Continuing to test how complex scenes and different node configurations are working on the Testnet.
Phase III-C: Implement watermarking for RNDR escrow system. More efficient job allocation and distribution.
Phase III-D: Integration of RNDR token on RNDR platform and full launch on Mainnet.
Render Phase IV
The Render Network migrates to a new RNDR blockchain protocol, with a RNDR API and SDK for network developers to create decentralized tools and applications on top of the Render Network.
