There is such a company named Electronic Image Systems, Inc. (EIS) in
Xenia, Ohio
EIS has developed a calligraphic light point circuit card, called the Light
Point Board (LPB), to enable Onyx InfiniteReality to display realistic
airport runway lights, city lights, or stars for use in pilot training
simulators, planetariums and location-based entertainment centers.
The EIS LPB directly and digitally interfaces with all EIS
raster/calligraphic projectors and monitors. It also provides a more
commonly-used analog calligraphic interface for use with other
raster/calligraphic displays. Generating all of the required signals to
support three display channels at up to 8000 calligraphic light points per
channel, the LPB exceeds the latest military requirements of 6,000 light
points per channel.
The IRIS PerformerTM makes the capability of the EIS LPB accessible to end
users.
Remi Arnaud (remi++at++asd.sgi.com) is the person to contact.
