DIGITAL PowerStorm 1000 Graphics Subsystem Owner's Guide 1–1

1

Introduction

1.1 Product Description

The DIGITAL PowerStorm 1000 graphics subsystem is a configurable, advanced 3D
graphics rendering accelerator that is designed to interface with DIGITAL AlphaStation
systems running the Windows NT or DIGITAL UNIX operating system.

The DIGITAL PowerStorm 1000 graphics subsystem produces high fidelity interactive
visual output that provides near photo-realistic rendering in motion.

The PowerStorm 1000 graphics subsystem’s high visual fidelity features include single-
pass rendering of:

•

Anti-aliased primitives (point, line, and triangle)

•

Realistically lit shaded and textured surfaces

•

Transparent overlapping surfaces

•

Fog and haze

•

Reflections

The PowerStorm 1000 graphics subsystem’s high visual fidelity features include multiple-
pass rendering of shadows.
