Overview • About the company • What is it? • What it does? • How does it affect us
Euclideon • Computer Software Company • Main project: New Graphic Engine • Government Grant of $2 Million under CAI • Named after Euclid
What is it? • 3D Graphics Engine • Based on point cloud rendering system • Similar to Octree Rendering Method • Uses large number of individual points to create objects • Angular Polygon vs. Cloud Point
What it does • Raise the count of Polygon • One elephant contains 530,906 polygons • 64 atoms per cubic millimeter • 1 million atoms per cubic inch • Better graphics by ~100,000 times • Run geometry count in unlimited quantity • Depends on memory • Resolution rendering • Use a search algorithm • Pull up only what needed • 1024x768 = 786,432 visible points
How it affects us? • Better Graphics • No “Polygon Budget” • Better Games • Cheaper • Useful in Medicine, Science and Architecture • Too Much CPU usage? • Better Hardware?
