VirtualGL Review by
3.5/5

VirtualGL is a completely free, multiplatform and open source command-line software that can redirect 3D commands from any given OpenGL app to a server-side 3D video card, on any Linux or UNIX-like operating system. It also converts the rendered images into a video file.

Key features include workstation-like levels of performance, which is very useful when used with high-speed proxy TurboVNC, as well as support for enabling 3D session collaboration and mobility, which is quite handy when used with VNC or similar proxy.

The software includes support for over 50MP/second on a 100 Mbit network, especially when used with the TurboVNC application and quad-buffered stereo support. It allows users to remove 3D data size.

The software can easily be used as a companion for the VizStack web browser to display parallel rendering jobs remotely, as well as with VMware or Oracle VirtualBox virtualization software for displaying OpenGL applications remotely on Microsoft Windows OSes.

VirtualGL is a cross-platform project which works under GNU/Linux, FreeBSD, Microsoft Windows and Mac OS X operating systems. It has been successfully tested on computers supporting either of the 32 or 64-bit CPU architectures.

For your convenience, the program is distributed as native installers for numerous distributions of GNU/Linux that use either of the DEB or RPM package management system. A source package is also available for download for Linux kernel-based operating systems that use a different package manager. After installation, you can use the VirtualGL software on your projects. More usage details can be found on the project’s website.
