Open Inventor was later opened for 3rd-party licensing, which is when it switched from “IRIS” to “Open“. It was licensed to two third party developers, Template Graphics Software (TGS) and Portable Graphics. TGS later bought Portable Graphics, making them the sole licensee. In 2004, TGS was acquired by Mercury Computer Systems, and in June 2009, the entity became an independent company again called Visualization Sciences Group (VSG), which continues to develop and support Open Inventor

Famous quotes containing the words open and/or inventor:

    The child ... stands upon a place apart, a little spectator of the world, before whom men and women come and go, events fall out, years open their slow story and are noted or let go as his mood chances to serve them. The play touches him not. He but looks on, thinks his own thought, and turns away, not even expecting his cue to enter the plot and speak. He waits,—he knows not for what.
    Woodrow Wilson (1856–1924)

    One must be an inventor to read well.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
