Key technologies which embrace these developments are advanced computer graphics techniques for photorealistic rendering, image analysis and animation. Parallel processing providesthe potential for practical utilization of these techniques. We describe current researchin Electronic Set Design using high performance graphics workstations and a new parallel processing platform, for generating virtual studio sets.
