Photon Engineering’s newest product, FREDmpc, is the result of the company’s continued investment in leveraging GPU technology for fast, radiometrically precise optomechanical raytracing and analysis.
GPU hardware technology allows for thousands of processing units to be contained within a single PC workstation. The technology is rapidly advancing, highly scalable, and has a relatively low entry cost when compared to distributable CPU based networks.
By simply adding, or upgrading, the GPU board in a PC, raytracing and analyses with FREDmpc can be performed orders of magnitude faster using GPUs than with conventional multi-threaded CPUs.
