This gives audiences a lifelike visual experience that makes them feel like they’re in the real world, and it requires high-performance equipment like GPUs and efficient computing technology to produce high-quality visuals.   Today’s 3D...

For lack of a better word to describe this problem, let’s call it the historical question. If we were...
