NeuroEngine

NeuroEngine is the core of NeuroTV 3d technology and the common basis of its 3d solutions and products. It has been entirely developed by NeuroTV and allows rendering and animation of 3d objects in real time (for example to deform geometry in order to animate a character mouth). NeuroEngine uses the DirectX technology and has been conceived and optimized to work perfectly in the broadcast world.
