Abstract
The virtual desktop infrastructure (VDI) service for the render farm platform at National Center for High-performance Computing (NCHC) was built to provide users with remote access to the render farm. Users from the film industry can utilize this platform throughout production, giving them the benefit of working on any regular laptop but with a dedicated Graphics Processing Unit (GPU). This paper describes an attempt at using NCHC’s VDI service for Augmented Reality (AR) and Virtual Reality (VR) to avoid the expensive equipment required.
