But they are all over the internet. Final Fantasy images belong to Square Enix, the hardware images were taken from NVIDIA or Wikipedia (Creative Commons). The YouTube videos have their original posters on the respective YouTube pages. Cheers.

If they aren’t yours i hope you can connect me to whom ever can answer this question.

Regards,
John

Couldn’t stop laugning watching the Softimage 2006 user group. Softimage 3d was the program I learnt on and to see it in action again, brought back the memories, brilliant.

If that’s how it came across because I didn’t list all the contending players, I apologise but please know that it certainly wasn’t the intent.

There are many many technologies that I have left out of the article (in the GPGPU rendering list there are dozens of real-time raytracers now coming on the market). The purpose is simply to give examples and not overwhelm the reader with too much information to digest.

OpenCL is certainly gaining momentum. Lack of mention was not anything against the technology nor was it to promote NVIDIA. But the focus of this series is also not on compute technologies, but on graphics and the science behind it.

Perhaps in a future article on raytracing, I will highlight OpenCL and its potential.

How about opencl? I mean cuda isnt the only tech. available, I hope people will realize this soon enough. D3D in linux env.?
