[[Image:Engine_movingparts.jpg|200px|right|thumbnail|A YafRay rendering of [[piston engine]] parts modelled in [[Blender (program)|Blender]].]]

'''YafRay''' ('''Y'''et '''A'''nother '''F'''ree '''Ray'''tracer) is an [[free software|free]], [[open source]] [[ray tracing]] program that uses an [[XML]] scene description language. It has recently been integrated into the 3D modelling software [[Blender (program)|Blender]], and so can now be used to render scenes made within it.

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

YafRay uses [[global illumination]] to produce realistic renderings of 3D scenes.  YafRay can build photon maps for caustic reflections, and can use a skydome for quicker rendering.  Recent developments include subsurface scattering shaders and increasing integration with [[Blender (software)|Blender]].
