In this paper, we present two different FlowVR systems aiming to render remote data using a Particle-based Volume Renderer (PBVR). The huge size of irregular volume datasets has always been one of the major obstacles in the field of scientific visualization. We developed an application with the software FlowVR, using its functionalities of “modules” which can be mapped and executed on remote computers, and communicating via ssh connections. Using a “Pixels Read-back and Send” and a “Particles Send” algorithms, we succeeded in creating an application designed for developing visualization programs with remote data particle-based rendering.
