ANGLE Portfolio

Geomerics   www.geomerics.com

Formed in 2005 by ANGLE, Geomerics develops commercial applications for Geometric Algebra (GA) – a sophisticated form of mathematics which vastly simplifies geometric operations with the potential to revolutionize fields as diverse as computer gaming and electromagnetic modelling.Geomerics brings together a team of leading academics from Cambridge University, the Colorado School of Mines and Arizona State University. Professor David Hestenes, the originator of GA in the 1960's, and now a member of Geomerics' team, laid the principles for a new form of mathematics which vastly simplifies geometric operations by reducing the number of individual calculations.

Geomerics will deliver state-of-the art solutions to the complex geometry problems inherent in many software applications such as computer graphics. For example, depicting the shadow cast by a light in a computer game is a problem of geometry that must be solved in real time for the game to flow. Geomerics' IP has demonstrated its ability to perform calculations like these between 10 and 100 times faster. This performance offers games and games designers the ability to make a major step towards film-quality visuals – the ‘holy-grail' for computer games.
