[osg-users] Off Topic: EPX-50 Anyone know anything about these?
Folks, I'm looking for any info I can find on the Rockwell Collins EPX-50. One of our marketing guys wants to move our visual applications to these. We currently run osg on commodity hardware.

Brian, What info are you looking for in particular? I had some exposure to the EPX product a while back while working at Evans Sutherland (now bought out by Rockwell-Collins). That was about 6 years ago so I'm sure things have evolved since that time. At that time, it was an IG that used COTS graphics hardware. I believe that is still the case. It's their lower end IG product which is competitive with most other products out there that employ a similar strategy. I personally like the EPX stuff but then I'm a little biased...:) http://www.rockwellcollins.com/service/simulation/visual-products/image-gene rators/epx-50/index.html -Shayne -Original Message- From: osg-users-boun...@lists.openscenegraph.org [mailto:osg-users-boun...@lists.openscenegraph.org] On Behalf Of Brian ...

Hi Brian, thats an interesting move. But, I know the trends are the other way in the industry. OSG has just about everything what the commercial IGs are offering. Some of the features are even much better. Those commercial are expensive. If your company have money might be better to spend it on improving OSG then buying proprietary software ... and hardware in your case -Nick On Fri, Mar 12, 2010 at 10:33 PM, Brian ... br...@hotmail.com wrote: Folks, I'm looking for any info I can find on the Rockwell Collins EPX-50.
