Synchronization of a PC cluster so that their 3-D image outputs are synchronized using a method in which display periods for individual graphics cards are modified as a function of processing of synchronization signals

摘要

Method for synchronizing an assembly of computers, each with a graphics card, arranged in a cluster for generating and processing graphical images has the following steps: acquisition of a characteristic signal from each graphics card, decoding of the acquired signals to generate a digital synchronization signal, processing of said digital signals and modification of respective display periods for the graphics cards as a function of the result of processing the synchronization signals. An Independent claim is made for synchronizing an assembly of computers, each with a graphics card, utilized in a cluster.
