Category: ARL News

Ireland hosting this years Ryder Cup was too big a party to miss. ARL's Virtual Eye golf team was there at the K Club, Dublin, alongside the likes of Michael Jordan and former presidents Bill Clinton and George Bush Sr. Virtual Eye worked with BSkyB and European Tour Productions to provide analysis of the course and play using a highly accurate model of the course, live ball position data, tee and pin locations, green contours and more.

The Ryder Cup is one of golf's most prestigious events, and so was the ideal event to launch our new graphical look. Making the most of modern graphics hardware, we have added physically based water (reflection and refraction), soft shadowing and highly detailed grass to our graphics - and of course, being Ireland, we had to make it rain too.

"We have all been truly overawed with the power... of the system, it's modelling, and it's operation. It is, by a long way, the best 3D that I have worked with anywhere..."
Richard Carr, Senior Producer, Formula One, BBC. (January 2011) - Monte Carlo 2012

"We are thrilled with the energy and enthusiasm that (ARL) has brought to the table... It is a real case of a Kiwi company combining a No.8 wire attitude with world-class technology."
Michael Glading - New Zealand Open Tournament Director (February 2014) - NZ Open 2015

"The... technology supplied by Animation Research Ltd is superior to anything seen previously, and testing has delivered the most consistent data our company has ever had."
Jason Paris - Head of Emerging Business, TVNZ (Louis Vuitton Pacific Series 2009) - Louis Vuitton 2009

"The 3D graphics deliver an experience for the trainee as close to the real thing as possible. Even sun-strike and raindrops on the cab windows are replicated with incredible realism."
Mark Griffin - Product Development Manager, Airways New Zealand (July 2012) -Total Control 2006
