In his intro to Solaris and Karma in Houdini, inside the Mind covers working with the Light Mixer LOP.

Inside The Mind adds a new installment to his Introduction to Solaris and Karma series and looks to work with the Light Mixer LOP feature in Houdini 20. “Lighting is essential in every scene. Luckily, Solaris gives us some great tools to work with lights in Houdini.”

Solaris is Houdini’s USD-based look development, layout, and lighting tools. Solaris incorporates USD’s HYDRA Imaging Framework, meaning you can use render delegates like RenderMan, Arnold, Redshift, and others. Inside The Mind offers a starter’s guide to working with Solaris and Karma within Houdini 20.
