OTOY is a cloud graphics company based in Los Angeles, California. It was founded by Jules Urbach (CEO), Alissa Grainger (President) and Malcolm Taylor (CTO) in 2008. OTOY's technology has moved high-end graphical processing to the cloud. Utilizing clusters of multiple GPUs, OTOY renders 3D graphics and streams them to its clients, such as filmmakers, game developers and animators, in real time.

In addition to its rendering technology, OTOY has LightStage, a facial scanning technology and XI.0, a service that allows the user to run Windows desktop applications in the cloud.

Light Fields

OTOY was the first company to demonstrate light field capture for Virtual Reality.[1] Its light field sampler system rotates 2 cameras around two axis to capture the spherical area around it.
