Not all virtual reality applications today require the power or expense of
single large visualization "supercomputers". Factors such as frame rate and
polygon count have a major impact upon the performance of a VR application.
Increasingly, low cost commodity consumer electronics and computing technology
are becoming powerful enough to present an acceptable level of graphics
performance. Already, commodity PCs are driving virtual reality workbenches
with stereo and tracking options. The next step is to have them drive
multi-screen environ-ments.
We present an experiment motivated by the low cost per performance of PC
commodity clusters. The experiment is to replace a visualization super-computing
platform driving a 4-wall immersive display system [1] with a PC commodity
cluster. We describe the system, implementation and experimental testing in the
paper.
