Scientific 3D-renderings with blender — •Dominik Rattenbacher — Max Planck Institute for the Science of Light, 91058 Erlangen, Germany

Surely, you have all seen fancy 3D-renderings in one or the other talk or some journal publications. These are not only an eye catcher, but can play a key role in visualizing a model or experiment for the audience.

In this talk, I will give an introduction to the open-source 3D-rendering software blender (blender.org), which is a powerful tool to create such images or even animations. I will start by giving an overview of its history and then dive into ray-tracing, which is the general process behind it. In the second half we will go step-by-step through a little example that shows you how to create an animation of a tunable laser beam being reflected by a mirror.
