Reality Center from SGI enhanced

Los Angeles 14 August 2001 SGI announced a range of enhancements for SGI Reality Center visualization facility.

SGI demonstrated the first high-end environment that includes a35 by 10 foot, curved screen, ultrabright, stereo DLP-based SGI Reality Center facility ever. This 3.6 million-pixel environment is driven by a three-pipe SGI Onyx 3400 system with a total of 15,000 lumens of brightness generated by three Mirage 5000 3D DLP projectors from Christie Digital Systems, Inc.

SGI is releasing OpenGL Multipipe 1.3 and OpenGL Multipipe SDK 1.2 for use in collaborative environments driven by SGI Onyx 3000 series scalable visualization systems. OpenGL Multipipe 1.3 enables users of SGI Reality Center environments, driven by SGI Onyx family systems, to fully utilize all applications in collaborative sessions. Without requiring changes, users will have the flexibility to mix standard applications with higher performance, multipipe applications resulting in a powerful yet flexible decision-making environment.
