Users of OpenInventor, the popular scene graph technology, will be happy to know that the latest version (8.1) adds in support for multi-GPU solutions like the NVidia Quadro Plex.
“This innovative package makes it possible to manipulate and access massive scenes in a practical, efficient way,” said Jean Bernard Cazeaux, CEO of VSG. “An application powered by Open Inventor 8.1 with CompleX running on a Quadro Plex system delivers a smoother, faster frame rate, and offers a much more interactive experience for engineers and geophysicists when viewing a seismic dataset of 100 million triangles. Without it, the performance would be unbearably slow.”
They’ve implemented it via NVidia’s CompleX application acceleration engine, so it’s optimized for NVidia hardware.
