Mechdyne Corporation
Mechdyne Corporation was founded in 1996 by Dr. Chris Clover, an Iowa State University Ph.D. graduate with extensive experience at the university’s Virtual Reality Applications Center. He recognized the potential for advanced visualization and interaction technologies and his research led him to realize the growing demand for customized systems, software, and services. The company went on to develop the first commercial CAVE™ to be driven with off-the-shelf PC’s instead of a supercomputer, the first rear-projected curve screen systems used in immersive visualization applications, and the world’s first reconfigurable immersive room, the FLEX™.
Mechdyne quickly and profitably grew to be one of the leading suppliers and innovators of large-scale visualization technology. Within a few years, the company had successfully deployed advanced systems on six continents. New products and services were developed in response to specific customer requirements as well as a growing understanding of creating turn-key systems to make visualization systems more intuitive and applicable to enterprise workflows.
