Microsoft Joins the Blender Development Fund
Ton Roosendaal, Chairman of Blender Foundation (which accepts donations to support activities to provide free and open accessible services for all Blender contributors), writes: Microsoft makes use of Blender to generate synthetic 3D models and images of humans that can be used to train AI models. For researchers, having access to high quality free/opensource 3D software has proven to be of great benefit for scientific projects. You can check some of their work here. To express their support, Microsoft is joining the Blender Foundation's Development Fund as a Corporate Gold member per July 1st, 2020. We at Blender are very proud of this support statement, it's another important signal that the industry migrates to open source and finds ways to contribute to it.Read more of this story at Slashdot.
