Project Overview
Clients can dynamically create shapes on any listening CalVR/CalFX server. Utilizing and expounding upon this simple interface, clients can render huge 3d scenes in real time to be viewed any number of different contexts -- even at the same time. A user could create a 3d animation on their smartphone and stream that object to a massive array of HD screens at each system's native resolution. At the same time, a separate smartphone could be viewing the same scene at the same time, also in its own native resolution.
This video-matrix approach enables users to create 3d scenes in whichever environment they are most comfortable, and not have to worry about the bare underlying architecture for deployment on an unknown system.
