Flash Tracer(tm) is a ray tracing server for Silicon Graphics that provides rendering across the network to Macintosh computers. Flash Tracer includes a Macintosh front end for submitting scenes, and receiving finished images, so that users can access the rendering speed of the Silicon Graphics workstation without having to learn Unix. Flash Tracer currently imports models from StrataVision and StudioPro, and will be supporting additional Macintosh formats by summer 1994.
