Streaming opengl commands over network

A fast, simple, lightweight and low latency framework suitable for embedded systems. (no X server needed)

• gl_client : client framework and sample program

  The client system does not need to have any GPU and heavy X server. Even without GPU, opengl programs can be run on any system !

• gl_server : server framework

  gl_server is optimized for Raspberry Pi for now. Therefore, the client system can use opengl es 2.0.

Demo Video1

Demo Video2

connect RPi and the client system with a ethernet cable. (straight cable is ok)

connect RPi to a display with HDMI cable. (yes, RPi do it)

copy the gl_server directory to RPi.

cd gl_server

make

./gl_server -s 192.168.0.2:12345 -c 192.168.0.3:12346

(Usage: ./gl_server [-s my_ip_address:port] [-c client_ip_address:port])

copy the gl_client directory to any computer.

cd gl_client

make

./sample1 -s 192.168.0.2:12345 -c 192.168.0.3:12346 -j /dev/input/js0

./sample2 -s 192.168.0.2:12345 -c 192.168.0.3:12346 -j /dev/input/js0

(Usage: ./sampleX [-c my_ip_address:port] [-s server_ip_address:port] [-j joystick_device])
