Company

Established in April 2010, Siliconarts, Inc. is a leader in 3D graphics rendering technology based on Ray tracing algorithm. This technology enables to render hugh data sets such as 3D contents very efficiently in real time basis, establishing a stepping stone in lifting the world's graphics industry to a higher level.

Siliconarts' Ray tracing hardware solution was developed by Professor Woo-Chan Park of Sejong University who is now one of Siliconarts' key founders. He successfully translated well-known Ray tracing algorithm into a hardware solution that outperforms existing machines presented by world's renowned graphics chipset makers and research labs.

Professor Woo-Chan Park, Hyung-Min Yoon and other founders founded the company with a desire to popularize its unique Ray tracing hardware technology into semiconductor IPs and GPUs.
