The Meridian Renderer

 

http://www.sunfishstudio.com/index.htm

 

This is a very interesting renderer. It has a different approach that is very promising and based on modal intervals . They dont use micropolygons or point sampling. The renderer supports high quality displacements, motionblur and maya paintfx. And - thats the best - the memory demands are really low, even for the largest scenes. Check it out.
