    Phoenix Data Systems, Inc. will introduce the revolutionary INSIGHT™ System, industry’s first real-time solid modeler. Based on modular, proprietary hardware processors, INSIGHT allows for the interactive manipulation, analysis and display of arbitrary 3-D objects acquired from solid primitives, voxel, surface or other 3-D formats. Application areas include medical display and analysis, CAD/CAM, simulation and cinematography. On display will be the INSIGHT MARK II Image Generator. Medical and CAD/CAM objects will be displayed interactively with surface shading, complete hidden-surface removal and surface texture. A 3-D trackball is used to control the following (all in 3-D): translation, scaling, rotation, randomly positioned cut planes, dynamic density selection (medical), and pseudocolor.
