Desktop & Cloud

Hardware heavy

Typically, interactive software applications need to run on local hardware. This is due to the highly graphical nature of these applications, wherein high end computers are needed for optimal viewing and interactive experiences.

This restriction means that users have to travel to the environment where the hardware is hosted, or have the hardware kit travel to them, meaning cost and time implications for projects.

Solutions at the ready

Using the cloud based Pixel streaming service, CADwalk can provide high end Unreal Engine applications remotely to users.

The custom application runs on a remote computer, and the rendered frames and audio generated by the Unreal Engine are displayed in real time.

The application continuously encodes the output into a media stream, which then passes through to the users local web browser.

Users can even send keyboard & mouse inputs back to the application for an interactive runtime experience.

Benefits

- No downloading required
- Uses light weight web browsers, capable of displaying high end graphics
- Remote cloud servers with powerful GPU’s to do the heavy lifting
- Scalable to the number of users
