YafRay
YafRay is a powerful
raytracer.
It enables users to create fantastic images and animations of
a photorealistic quality.
It is an advanced raytracing rendering system with many modern
features including full radiosity and High Dynamic Range Imaging (HDRI)
for scene lighting. It reads a simple XML-based scene definition file,
and
can be used as a renderer for Blender.

Features include:
- Render
- Full Global Illumination - uses global illumination to
produce realistically lit renderings of 3D scenes, using
Monte carlo-derived approximations
- Skydome Illumination - based mainly on light coming from
an emitting sky, taking into account the soft shadows calculations also
involved
- Caustics - uses photon mapping that allows for caustic
(light distortion produced by reflection or transmission such as
through a burning-glass)
- Glossy/Blurry reflections
- Modular framework
- Integration in 3D suites via plugin
- Distributed and multi-thread rendering
