API Manuals
Render Kit libraries provide C99-based API interfaces. API manuals are located on component library public webpages.
- Intel® OSPRay API manual
- Intel® Embree API manual
- Intel® Open Volume Kernel Library (Intel® Open VKL) API manual
- Intel® Open Image Denoise API manual
All C99 API headers compile under C++11. If you prefer C++, some Render Kit libraries expose C++ API wrappers functionality defined in header files.

Advanced Sample Program Sources
For each component sample, source is available in the component GitHub* repository:
- Intel OSPRay sample sources
- Intel Embree sample sources
For sample description, see chapter 9 in Intel Embree guide.
- Intel Open VKL sample sources
- Intel Open Image Denoise sample sources
This is command line only.
- Intel OSPRay Studio source
Superbuild
You can deploy a local environment to build and run all samples with the superbuild. The superbuild is a complete automated CMake* script to get and build all Render Kit libraries and samples. The superbuild is a recommended method for:
- Exploring all samples in an easy and comprehensive sandbox. Editing and rebuilding them quickly.
- Getting many prerequisites for building the libraries automatically
- Reviewing internal library source code
- Modifying Render Kit functionality, including staging library build time optional features
The superbuild script is delivered as the rkUtil component of the Render Kit distribution. It is also located in the Render Kit github portal. For a superbuild script walkthrough, see the document for your operating system:
