Platform to Innovate a World of New Possibilities
|
It is an open source development project based on and evolved
from Sun Microsystems' advanced technology project. It supports
running unmodified existing applications in a 3D space, as well
as APIs for 3D window manager and application development.
At the moment, existing application integration is supported
for Solaris x86 and Linux platforms.
The library for 3D application deveopment is available for
Linux, Solaris and Windows.

Evolving with the Opensource Community
|
The project intends to break two boundaries -- the 2D-ness of
the current desktop environment and the way the desktop environment
evolves. Project Looking Glass is in its infancy. We need to explore
lots of ideas and possibilities. We're releasing the Project Looking
Glass code to the whole community to explore every aspect of the
technology rather than restricting access to a privileged few.
We believe this open development is an excellent model to pursue
this exciting and vast opportunity. So, your involvement is eagerly
anticipated.
