Blender是一個免費且開源的3D創作軟體，在藝術家、設計師和開發人員中非常受歡迎。由Blender Foundation開發，提供全面的工具套件，用於創建令人驚嘆的3D動畫、模型和視覺效果。

Blender 的用戶界面設計直觀且易於使用，使得初學者和專業人士都能輕鬆使用。它提供了廣泛的功能，包括建模、雕刻、材質、燈光、動畫和視頻編輯。該軟體還支持第三方插件，可以實現更高的靈活性和自定義。

Blender 的社群也是一個重要的資產。網上有許多學習如何使用 Blender 的資源，包括視頻教程、文件說明和論壇。此外，社群還經常製作可供免費下載使用的附加元件、資產和插件。

Blender有廣泛的應用範圍。它通常用於創建遊戲、電影和電視節目的3D模型。建築師和室內設計師也常常使用它來創建建築和空間的逼真可視化。此外，藝術家和設計師也經常使用Blender來創作抽象或風格化的藝術作品。

Blender 是一個多功能且強大的工具，適合任何對於3D建模、動畫或視覺效果感興趣的人。其易用性和強大的功能使其成為初學者和專業人士的絕佳選擇，而其活躍的社群確保總有新東西可以學習或探索。

Version 2.69
FBX import is now supported, along with improved export. New mesh modeling tools were added and existing ones improved. Cycles subsurface scattering and hair shading were improved, along with the addition of a new sky model, shading nodes and tone mapping in the viewport. The motion tracker now supports plane tracking, to track and replace flat objects in footage.
Modeling
A new hidden wire display option was added to help with retopology. Mesh Bisect is a new tool to cut meshes in half. The Bridge, Edgenet fill, Grid fill and Symmetrize tools were improved. New curve and lattice editing tools were added too.
Cycles Render
Hair rendering was improved with a new Hair shader and reorganized settings. Subsurface scattering uses a new sampling algorithm and now supports bump mapping and texture blurring.
Sky rendering now uses a more accurate sky model. New blackbody, vector transform and HSV nodes were added. The non-progressive integrator was renamed to Branched Path Integrator, and is now available for GPU rendering.
Tone mapping now works in the viewport, with photographic film emulation.
Motion Tracker
The Motion tracker now supports plane tracking, which can be used to replace billboards, screens and other flat things in footage.
Addons
FBX Import support has been added and FBX/OBJ can now export split normals (without the need for the edge split modifier).
Bug fixes
In addition to the new features, over 270 bugs that existed in previous releases have been fixed.
More Features
Lists in the user interface can now be resized, sorted and filtered. Further there are small improvements for vertex parenting, empty objects, the shrinkwrap modifier, mask editing, armatures, f-curves and drivers.
