Here is a little story that caught my eye the other week about Nvidia launching their new Reality Server. Which is, in short, a platform allowing high-quality realtime 3D graphics to be processed and interacted with remotely over the web.
Now a story about a server farm may usually drive normal person to remove their eyeballs from their sockets with boredom, however here at The Processor we could see the potential use for this bucket-load of supercomputers… the IP games provider, OnLive. With promises of users being able to manipulate, in real-time, complex 3D shading and rendering of detailed environments instantly, we think their recommended use for interior design is really not that great i.e. shit. We think the subtle rendering of zombies heads exploding and spraying blood all over the screen would be a much better use for this amazing technology.
Further proof that OnLive may not only be a dream, but more of a reality… server.
