Technology: The I-Novae Engine

Overview
Representing the largest breakthrough in game technology in over a decade the I-Novae Engine is capable of displaying environments on any scale. With our advanced level of detail system the transition from the surface of a celestial body to outer space is handled in seamless real-time. Utilizing procedural algorithms, leveraging satellite generated geospatial data, or combining both the only boundary is your imagination.
