The blue-c API presents an easy to use interface to the complex, distributed system. Its primary design goal is a high-performance virtual reality system that uses the available hardware to its full potential. The software is highly parallelized to exploit multiprocessor hardware. The different services communicate using a message passign paradigm, enabling distribution of services across a cluster of PCs.
The blue-c API relies on the blue-c communication layer (see networking) for all communication tasks and integrates the 3D video system (see 3d video).
