When AI-generated 3D modeling meets real-time rendering technology, imagination turns into something you can truly see and feel.
This November, Tripo and RaysEngine are joining forces to launch the 2nd AI 3D Rendering Competition, as part of ICXR 2025 (International Conference on Extended Reality) — one of the world's most influential XR events hosted by the China Computer Federation (CCF).
The theme "Portal Pass" explores how creators can use AI and rendering to build gateways between different worlds — blending storytelling, design, and technology in one seamless visual experience.
Winning works will be showcased on Times Square's Nasdaq Tower and displayed across landmark screens in major cities worldwide. Your creation could be seen by millions across the globe.
Grand Prize: $1,500 + Tripo Studio Pro (1 Year) + Global Promotion
Eight Category Awards: Covering creativity, storytelling, technical skill, and use of Tripo Studio
RaysEngine Special Awards: Exclusive cash prizes for works rendered with the RaysEngine
All finalists receive Pro access, exposure, and a dedicated showcase on Tripo and RaysEngine's platforms
Every qualified participant will also get a 1-month Tripo Studio Pro plan — so just joining pays off.
RaysEngine is a fully self-developed rendering engine designed for cloud-native production.
Its hybrid end-cloud system delivers smooth, low-latency rendering without depending on high-end devices — ideal for AR/VR, digital twins, smart cities, and virtual production.
Core highlights:
This year introduces a brand-new RaysEngine Track, celebrating the rise of next-generation Chinese rendering technology.
Entries in this category must be rendered with RaysEngine, combining high fidelity with ultra-efficient performance.
Creators are encouraged to generate their base 3D models with Tripo Studio — then bring them to life with RaysEngine's material system, lighting tools, and cinematic post-processing.
It's the perfect showcase of a new creative pipeline: AI generation → real-time rendering → global visibility.
Step 1: Register
Fill out the official registration form for the 2nd Tripo AI 3D Rendering Competition to confirm your participation.
Step 2: Download & Set Up RaysEngine
Visit the official website of RaysEngine, then complete the download and registration process (recommended via Chrome).
Step 3: Submit
Upload your final 6-second video (1920×1080, 30 FPS, 180 frames) via the official website, including a cover image and short creative description.
You may also share it on X, Instagram, Facebook, or YouTube with the hashtag #TripoRenderingChallengeS2 and tag @TripoAI, but only submissions through the official site will be considered valid.
Models should be created with Tripo Studio, and all final rendering must be done in RaysEngine.
Join the Tripo × RaysEngine Rendering Challenge and show the world what AI-powered creativity can look like.
Create your world with Tripo Studio, render it with RaysEngine, and step through your own Portal Pass.
Submissions open soon — we'll see you on the leaderboard.
moving at the speed of creativity, achieving the depths of imagination.
