  • Advanced Graphics Optimization For Data Visualization In Unity3D

    Your Desktop

    Modern 3D game engines and computer hardware can render convincing graphics, rivaling that of pre-rendered 3D animation. But video games still require special optimization techniques and tricks. This relates directly to perceived capabilities for data visualization and serious applications: we can generate and render thousands of interactive objects. But what about millions? This workshop will […]
