The Foundry MARI 1.0 released!

03.08.2010

Foundry Mari Avatar screenshot The Foundry released MARI 1.0, the first iteration of their new 3D texture painting application. MARI is a brand new creative 3D texture painting product, originally developed at Weta Digital to handle the exceedingly detailed look development and texture work demanded by Avatar. MARI copes easily with an obsessive level of detail - literally tens of thousands of textures - quickly and elegantly (more on features; videos). MARI is currently available on Linux 64, Windows build will be released later this year. For more information, take a look at MARI on The Foundry's YouTube Channel. You can also download a fully functional 15-day demo license here and have a play for yourself, or buy the application for an MSRP of 600 GBP / 900 USD / 720 EUR ex. VAT, including 1 year of maintenance. In addition, The Foundry announced an exclusive deal with Walt Disney Animation Studios providing access to their Paint 3D technology. Find out more about what this means for MARI here. [source]

The suggested retail price is $249 US, and later this year, Microsoft plans to offer special academic pricing of $149 US for Qualified Educational Users. Since Beta 2, Kinect developers made many improvements to the SDK, including support for up to four Kinect sensors plugged into the same computer, improved skeletal tracking, Near Mode for the new Kinect for Windows hardware, which enables the depth camera to see objects as close as 40 centimeters in front of the device, and more.
