'''YafaRay''' (originally '''YafRay''', '''Y'''et '''A'''nother '''F'''ree '''Ray'''tracer) is a [[free software|free]], [[open source]] [[ray tracing]] program that uses an [[XML]] scene description language. It has been integrated into the 3D modelling software [[Blender (software)|Blender]], and so can now be used to render scenes made within it directly, without the need for an exporter.

It is licensed under the [[GNU Lesser General Public License]] (LGPL).

;Global Illumination
	
:YafRay uses [[global illumination]] to produce realistically lit renderings of 3D scenes, using [[Monte Carlo method|Montecarlo]]-derived approximations.
;Skydome Illumination	
:This illumination system is based mainly on light coming from an emitting sky, taking into account the soft shadows calculations also involved. The illumination can be obtained from a [[High dynamic range imaging|high dynamic range image]].
