Animator Render Farm Powered by Angstrom Titan64 SuperBlade(TM) Server Solutions
Angstrom Microsystems Corp. (OTCBB: AGMS), a
green computing solutions company, announces today that Rhythm & Hues has
used its deployment of Angstrom Titan64 SuperBlade rendering blades for
the creation of the hit animation movies "The Incredible Hulk" and "The
ummy: Tomb of the Dragon Emperor." The successful implementation of
Angstrom's Titan64 SuperBlade and its contribution to these incredible
blockbuster animation hits is just another milestone for Angstrom in
establishing itself as a leader in the special effects industry. Angstrom
blades are energy efficient computers powered by AMD (NYSE: AMD) Opteron
processors to provide maximum performance. Rhythm and Hues chose the
Angstrom Titan64 computers over its competitors because it was better able
to conduct significantly more complex and faster generation of movie
animations.
Angstrom Microsystems specializes in Green Computing solutions, providing
blade servers and workstations uniquely designed for the special effects
industry. With both hardware and software solutions to reduce the power
needed to drive computing, Angstrom reduces the number of machines required
to facilitate these tasks and thereby saving companies significant
investments into additional servers at the same time reducing the energy
required to run these servers.
"We are excited to see the 'Big Green Guy' and 'The Mummy' brought to life
utilizing Angstrom's Titan64 SuperBlade servers," said Lalit Jain, CEO of
Angstrom Microsystems. "Using advanced liquid cooling technology in the
future, Angstrom expects more successful creative endeavors with Rhythm &
Hues and looks forward to an even stronger and mutually rewarding
partnership."
"Angstrom's blade servers played an important role in providing the
computing backbone for the rendering of 'The Incredible Hulk' and 'The
ummy: Tomb of the Dragon Emperor,'" said Mark Brown, Vice President of
Technology at Rhythm & Hues. "Angstrom's SuperBlade servers based on the
AMD Opteron processor provided the computing power we needed for these
projects, and Angstrom's technical assistance enabled us to easily manage
and expand our growing requirements for the film."
