ABSTRACT:
A plurality of stations (25, 26, 27) are connected to a central serving processor (37) via the public switched telephone network (33). Each station (25, 26, 27) includes a processing device (28) and a monitor (29) for generating an interactive three-dimensional graphics environment. Similar environments are provided on each remote station and interaction between the stations is facilitated by transmitting transformation matrices, modified by one station, to all of the other stations. Each transformation matrix defines a transformation of an object or a light source into the displayable space.
