| The Programmers Hierarchical Interactive Graphics System is an ANSI (American National Standards Institute) and ISO (International Standards Organization) standard for 3D graphics. PHIGS allows applications to create complex hierarchies of graphics data and manages the organization and display of that data in a central database. The PHIGS+ extension provides support for pseudo-realistic rendering. | |||||
