NVIDIA and Mental Images announced the new NVIDIA RealityServer platform for cloud computing. The RealityServer platform uses CUDA and iray photo-realistic rendering technology to combine OpenGL rendering with ray-tracing for best quality. Although rendering is not yet done in real time, it is pretty close, and pretty impressive. What would normally take a person a couple of hours to render, can be done in a few seconds on the RealityServer platform.
