Blender unveiled innovative features at SIGGRAPH 2025, including Nvidia's real-time path tracing and DLSS upscaling. DLSS enhances viewport previews in Cycles by using AI to upscale lower-resolution images, promoting smoother interactions even for users with less powerful computers. Although ghosting occurs, it is minor compared to the past delays of rendering. The demos showcased significant advancements, leading to a more interactive pre-visualization experience and aligning inspiring advancements in AI and gaming technology within Blender, making it a compelling option for 3D artists.
"The addition of DLSS denoising as an option in the Cycles render engine in Blender takes a much lower resolution viewport and upscales it with AI to look like the normal image using less computing power than usual methods."
"Another SIGGRAPH exclusive Blender demo was Nvidia's DLSS denoiser for Cycles. It made moving around the viewport feel as smooth as EEVEE! Crazy stuff."
