The vibe of this and their accompanying website is plain weird.
Either they're hoaxing clowns or they have no idea how to communicate in a way that appears legit!
- wizard_2 17y agoLines like "The result is a perfect pure bug free 3D engine that gives Unlimited Geometry running super fast, and it's all done in software." Set off my bullshit detector immediately. I hope this is real, but I'd love to see maybe.. some sort of OpenGL extension, or demo app. I can understand wanting to be secretive, but he's got nothing to show at the moment but a lot of talk.
- mortenjorck 17y agoThat logo looks like something from the psychic unicorn appreciation webring. That said, at first I didn't like the narrator, but I actually don't mind him in a Ben "Yahtzee" Croshaw sort of way.
- knarf_navillus 17y agoI agree. Here's what I posted on YouTube: This seems really fishy to me. First of all, the detail simply cannot be 'unlimited'. The point cloud data is necessarily limited by memory. And unless the search algorithm is O(c), there must be a limit to how much point cloud data can be searched in a 60th or a 30th of a second (pick whatever frame rate you like). It also seems like animation would complicate things greatly. Although I don't quite believe the hype, it is a fucking impressive piece of software and should be praised as such.
