A special purpose multiprocessor architecture has been developed which facilitates the high speed display and manipulation of shaded three dimensional objects or object surfaces on a conventional raster scan CRT. The reconstruction algorithms exploit the capability to divide object space into totally disjoint cubical regions permitting multiple display processors to access independent memory banks concurrently without conflict. All of the geometric parameters describing rotation, translation, and scaling are incorporated into one short table facilitating very rapid manipulation of the image display presentation. 12 references.
