Mercury Detailed Program
Patchwork3D suite by Lumiscaphe
Built around an award-winning real-time realistic rendering engine, Patchwork3D offers stylists and engineers a complete software suite to import CAD models, apply textures and lighting, and perform interactive realistic viewing. With real-time rendering and realistic simulation of materials and lightings, Patchwork3D allows industrial designers to communicate as early as the design stage begins, delivering very high-quality digital mock-ups to validate product impact before manufacturing. Patchwork3D provides to communications and sales people a straightforward solution to market industrial products.
Patchwork3D enters the digital process very easily and provides a series of easy to use tools so as to make movies and interactive images of very high definition.

OpenRTRT™: real-time ray tracing software technology
Aimed at existing 3D application developers, OpenRTRT™ is a state-of-the-art SDK (software development kit) that delivers real-time ray tracing capabilities. Ray tracing is a 3D rendering technique based on complex mathematical algorithms that is used to produce realistic images. It traces the path taken by a ray of light through a scene, and calculates reflection, refraction, or absorption of the ray whenever it intersects the scene. OpenRTRT offers an easy-to-use application programming interface that provides an alternative to the OpenGL® rendering engine by delivering photorealistic renderings at interactive rates. Enabling real-time accurate reflections, refractions and fine shadow details, OpenRTRT delivers linear scalability through distribution on a cluster configuration, and takes full advantage of multiprocessor/multicore architectures.

DirectViz™ for Open Inventor™ developers
For 3D graphics application publishers, DirectViz™ delivers the whole power of the OpenRTRT technology within the de facto standard framework for 3D application development. DirectViz is an extension to Version 6 of Open Inventor™ by Mercury Computer Systems, the object-oriented, cross-platform 3D graphics software suite that offers more than 1,200 ready-to-use classes integrated in a user-friendly framework for rapid development. With this offering, Mercury proposes the first hybrid high-level 3D graphics application development framework, and addresses the escalating needs currently out of reach by graphics processors and OpenGL, in styling and conceptual design, virtual prototyping, and visual simulation.
