VirtualGL redirects 3D commands from a Unix/Linux OpenGL application onto a server-side GPU and converts the rendered 3D images into a video stream with which remote clients can interact to view and control the 3D application in real time.
Powerful platform for creating networked multiplayer 3D games. The system includes specifications for a client engine and 2 protocols. Demo apps: mud/moo proxy, tetris. Currently uses OpenGL, VRML, java, tcl. Client/server architecture for security.
