Well I finally got one 8-)
AAlchemy 8464DB
Quantum3D’s third generation, open architecture family of advanced, scalable PC-IGs that combines sixteen VSA-100 chips, 1 GB of dedicated graphics memory and 42.5 GB/sec graphics bandwidth per channel to deliver up to 890 Megapixels per second at resolutions of up to 1600 x 1200 pixels, with trilinear filtering and T-buffer™ full-scene, sub-pixel anti-aliasing enabled. AAlchemy features the essential capabilities required for realtime training applications-- including high-resolution output with multiple pixel formats and full-scene anti-aliasing, advanced texture compression for enhanced on-board texture storage and texture paging performance and precision, hardwarebased inter-channel synchronization (SwapLock™). Available with optional external source synchronization (QSync™) and the nVSensor™ sensor post processing subsystem, AAlchemy is an open architecture PC-IG that supports the 3dfx® Glide™ API as well as SimGL™, Quantum3D’s vis-sim optimized graphics API that is based on the published OpenGL® API (but which is not an implementation that is certified or licensed by Silicon Graphics, Inc. under the OpenGL API). Both Glide™ and SimGL™ are widely employed by industry leading realtime 3D scene managers and high-level APIs, including MultiGen-Paradigm Vega. AAlchemy’s open architecture, unrivaled performance, image quality, key simulation features and low cost has enabled the deployment of advanced synthetic environment training applications on PC-based systems-- which results in tremendous savings in acquisition, maintenance and development costs over proprietary alternatives. Consequently, AAlchemy™ has been adopted by leading training systems integrators including Lockheed Martin, Thales, Alenia Marconi, Indra, Honda, Mitsubishi Precision, Adacel, Raytheon, Boeing, Soft Reality, Raydon, SDS International, Aerobel and others.
I also got one with the "nVSensor™ sensor post processing subsystem
About nVSensor
Developed for precision training and simulation applications that require high-fidelity night vision goggle (NVG) and/or infrared (IR) synthetic environments, the Quantum3D nVSensor is a programmable realtime image processing graphics subsystem that adds physics-based special effects, symbology and reticles to imagery rendered by the AAlchemy graphics subsystem. Designed to preserve the precision of the AAlchemy graphics subsystem, nVSensor interfaces with AAlchemy via a 30-bpp digital pixel port and provides user selectable color space conversion to RGB values or gray scale, with support for white-hot and black-hot object definition. For integration flexibility, nVSensor provides both 24-bpp digital (DVI) and 30-bpp analog RGB outputs. nVSensor employs a programmable, multi-stage pipeline architecture that enables the subsystem to provide the most advanced sensor effects available in a PC-based product today without affecting core AAlchemy rendering performance or adding latency or transport delay to the overall graphics pipeline. Special effects currently supported by the nVSensor Effects Library include blur, noise, gain, bias, reticles and symbology, AC coupling, automatic gain control, polarity inversion and white-hot/black-hot settings.
