- Overall, the flow and functionality of the CityEngine platform is easy to use.
- The graphics resource (1 xL40 vGPU - 48Q profile) utilization never exceeded >5% for any of the above use cases.
- End-user graphic latency was noticeable (slow GUI movement, fewer than 5 Frame Per Second (fps) for long-distance remote sessions.
- On-site user (distance to lab ~ 100 m , max network latency 5 ms):
Good user experience CityEngine ~ 10 to 15 fps
- Remote user (distance to lab ~ 25 km, max network latency 10 ms)
Good user experience CityEngine ~ 10 to 15 fps
- Remote user (distance to lab ~ 8500 km, max network latency 253 ms)
Poor user experience CityEngine ~ 2 to 3 fps
- Modification of CityEngine default camera rendering settings screen-space ambient occlusion (SSAO) significantly improved user experience for high latency connections
