Nations' Largest Passive Stereoscopic Tiled Wall Display Powered by Advanced Clustering Technologies
Advanced Clustering Technologies implements an Infiniband based Beowulf Cluster to power the largest passive steroscopic tiled wall displays in the Nation. Some of the uses of the cluster will include biological modeling and medical visualization.
Kansas City, KS (PRWEB) May 26, 2004 -- Advanced Clustering Technologies announces the implementation of an Infiniband based Beowulf Cluster to power one of the largest known passive stereoscopic tiled wall display in the United States. The cluster was purchased for use in the Purdue Universitys Envision Center for Data Perceptualization.
The graphics cluster was developed as part of a high performance visualization showcase to aid in research and teaching at Purdue University. Some of this clusters applications include medical visualization, geographical information system, architectural walk-through, biological modeling, homeland security simulations and large particle simulation" said Raj Arangarasan, Visualization Research Coordinator, Envision Center for Data Perceptualization.
We were honored to be chosen to work with the Purdues Envision Center staff to develop this cluster. It is very exciting to see our cluster used for such cutting edge research and educational purposes." said Shelly Matthews, Vice President of Sales. The 13 node dual Xeon cluster uses Mellanox technology 4X Infiniband HBC's the Mellanox MTS24, 24 port switch for data transfer and the Nvidia QuadroFX 3000G to drive the 12' x 7' rear projected tiled wall.
