The entry workstation workloads of yesterday are evolving and expanding.  Today’s entry workstation workloads have an increasing number of software solutions and extensions that require high-performing, reliable, professional-grade solutions to support your growing workflows.  These workflows include design, analytics, rendering, professional virtual reality (VR) visualization, production and distribution.  Comprehending the full demands of a growing workload and workflow is why the Intel Xeon processor E3-1200 v6 is the trusted choice for processional CAD, media and entry Pro VR workstation customers.  Entry workstations that are just a few years old can’t keep pace with the changing demands and new workload enhancements available today.

Professional VR Visualization with Entry Workstations

Virtual reality (VR) is one of the most exciting and revolutionary capabilities to impact professional workstation customers in recent years.  One example is how professional designers can draft their CAD drawings and quickly visualize in full 3D/VR with compatible hardware and software specifications that support a VR headset.  The ability to view your design in VR delivers huge savings in design time, production, testing and development and can provide an amazing immersive experience.  Previously, designs would often require rendering in 2D or limited 3D experiences, printing, assembly, or physical testing.  Today, many of these tasks are streamlined and accelerated through the aid of commercial/professional VR usages and capabilities.
The Intel Xeon processor E3-1200 v6 product family supports the latest VR headset requirements from manufactures like HTC* Vive and Oculus* Rift.  Now, for entry workstations configured to support the latest VR headset requirements, the Intel Xeon processor E3-1200 v6 product family can be the foundation for these immersive experiences.
Additional scale and VR capabilities are possible with the Intel Xeon processor E5 product family-based workstations that can deliver real-time VR creation and visualization.  You can build, modify, visualize and experience your designs and commercial/professional usages in real-time, with little-to-no latency in the design and visualization experience.
