Stellar described VelaTX as the first of a family of 3D rendering engines based on the PixelSquirt architecture. The company claimed it would deliver 200-Mpixel/s rendering without Z-buffering.
You’ve seen it in movies and shows — the hero takes a blurry still picture, and with a few keystrokes, generates a view from a different angle or sometimes even a full 3D model. Turns o… ...
