IndyTM
lndy is the newest addition to the Indigo family of desktop workstations, which combines the key
elements of workgroup collaboration, interactive media, and computing. Indy delivers
high-performance CPU and graphics with fullfeatured integrated digital media
at a remarkably low price point.
Experience incredible high-end application performance along with 2D and 3D
image manipulation. The lndy workstation's fast application performance is based upon
a high bandwidth 64-bit system architecture featuring the MIPS RISC R4X00
CPU technology, 267MB/sec system bus, and 400MB/sec memory bus.
The Indy XL graphics subsystem, offering 8-bit or 24-bit color, delivers amazing
2D and 3D graphics, X 11, and imaging performance. Indy XL graphics use the CPU
and system memory for 2D and 3D geometry capabilities and Z-buffering to deliver unmatched
CPU-accelerated graphics. For those who need even greater 3D performance,
there's Indy XZ, which dedicates 128 MFLOPS of power to 3D work.
Indy allows you to work easily with 3D graphics, photorealistic images,
real-time video and CD-quality audio. Standard tools such as IndyCam color
digital video camera, integrated video, MediaMail software, and options such as
desktop conferencing and Indy Video, allow you to capture, create, and communicate your ideas.
The full digital media capability of Indy increases your productivity with Indigo Magic,
a new generation desktop user environment. Indigo Magic goes beyond the traditional
GUI by providing the first Media User Interface incorporating audio, video, and graphics.
Indy excels in heterogeneous environments with servers, PCs, or Macintosh.
Indy supports PC and Macintosh client software for Netware and AppleTalk networks,
supports third-party PC and Macintosh emulation packages, and accepts PC and Macintosh
3.5" floppies.
Configure Indy to meet your needs. CPU and graphics modules are configurable
and memory and disk are upgradable.
With support for over 1,800 applications,
binary compatibility with other Silicon Graphics systems, and a rich feature set,
Indy is the ideal choice for many markets:
- Color Publishing
- Film and Video
- Education
- CAD
- CASE
- Chemistry
