Eyesight

Eyesight is the 3D renderer integrated into BrickLink Studio for creating photorealistic images.

(Another renderer integrated in that tool is POV-Ray.)

Eyesight is a command-line tool spawned by Studio when you are triggering a rendering from its user interface. It can be run standalone manually if you specify the correct options.

To see a list of all available options, invoke it from the command line with this parameter:

  eyesight.exe --help

Note that that executable can be found in a subfolder e.g. PhotoRealisticRenderer\win\64.

What is Eyesight?

You can learn from the COPYING.txt file delivered with BrickLink Studio that Eyesight is based on the open source "Cycles" renderer
