GODBOX Computer Desktop Workstations
The thing is, with cloud computing your power is miles away in a data center, that’s not great for latency, and GPU VMs (virtual machines) are very expensive to rent. When you want to go to work using VR/AR and especially if you want to collaborate in real-time, you need power.

First Look Inside the GODBOX Threadripper Pro Workstation
GODBOX Pro goes into production, bringing AMD’s Threadripper Pro WRX80 chipset and CPU with NVIDIA’s professional GPUs and accelerated real-time visualization, together in an enterprise level desktop workstation.
It’s been a journey that started in 2016 when On-Set Facilities (OSF) took their first PCs on to virtual production sets. What started out as a mega gamming rig, built by OSF to power Unreal Engine on-set, is now a complete power edge computing solution, one that provides artists and developers with the power to develop full-spectrum real-time virtual production pipelines, on the desktop, in the studio and on-set. From powering in-camera VFX on LED to designing products and building in real-time in Omniverse or designing 3D applications for AR/VR in Unity, the new GODBOX Pro is the worlds first real-time engine verified professional workstation.

Unity vs Unreal Engine vs Omniverse Test 1
The results are in. Which is faster, Unreal Engine or Unity, Omniverse?
At OSF we’re fanatical about understanding the virtual user experience. Understanding Frame Rates (FPS) when developing hardware to run interconnected virtual applications is important, as it enables outerface developers to build experiences that won’t ‘rip’ the fabric of the user experience, eat up bandwidth, memory, and kill FPS.
