Your rendering layer is the ceiling your customers keep hitting.
Your rendering layer is the ceiling your customers keep hitting.
Your platform handles workflows, analytics, collaboration, and data management. Your customers trust it. But when they load a 50GB point cloud, your rendering layer chokes. When they try 500GB, it crashes. The problem compounds from three directions:
Datasets grow faster than your renderer.
Your customers buy cheaper sensors every year. Their drone fleets expand. Their LiDAR captures grow denser. Your renderer handles the same ceiling it handled two years ago.
GPU dependency limits deployment.
GPU cloud instances cost 3-5x what CPU instances cost. Air-gapped defense environments cannot use GPU infrastructure at all. GPU dependency is a cost your customers absorb and a market you cannot enter.
Building your own is a multi-year bet.
3-5 years of senior engineering time. $5M+ in development cost. No guarantee of matching the performance Nuclideon achieves today. Your competitors are not waiting.

Leica Geosystems validated this model at 30,000 users.
Leica Geosystems licensed the Unlimited Detail™ engine and embedded it into their JetStream product line. 30,000+ survey professionals ran on Paul Fox's code at production scale for years inside a Tier 1 Hexagon product. udSDK delivers the same engine to your platform as a compiled DLL. Your core IP stays yours. Ours stays ours. Your customers get unlimited-scale point cloud rendering on standard CPUs. You ship the capability in one product cycle instead of spending three years building it.
What udSDK gives your platform.
What udSDK gives your platform.
- Unlimited dataset scale for your customersudSDK processes point cloud datasets exceeding 200TB with no file-size ceiling. Your customers load datasets that crash every competing product, on the hardware they already own.
- Zero GPU dependency in your product stackThe engine runs on standard CPUs. Your cloud hosting costs drop. Your on-premise customers stop buying GPU workstations. Your product deploys into air-gapped defense environments.
- Compiled DLL integrationudSDK ships as a compiled library with a clean API. Your engineering team integrates it into your existing platform. Both parties protect their core IP.
- Proven integration pathwayUnreal Engine, custom C2 platforms, GIS systems, digital twin environments, and simulation frameworks. Documented and tested integration patterns.
- Air-gapped and classified deployment supportYour defense and government customers need platforms that operate on isolated networks with zero connectivity. udSDK carries no cloud dependency and no call-home licensing.
- Direct engineering supportWhen your integration engineers have a question, they talk to the engineers who wrote the code. Paul Fox and the Nuclideon technical team support every SDK integration.

- Defense PrimesYour C2 and ISR platforms need 3D geospatial rendering on classified, air-gapped environments on government-issue hardware. udSDK eliminates the GPU constraint. Lockheed Martin integrated udSDK into a C2/ISR system.
- GIS Platform VendorsYour customers load larger datasets every quarter. Your rendering layer hits a ceiling. udSDK removes that ceiling. Your product handles any dataset size on standard hardware.
- Game Engine & Simulation DevelopersYour simulation or digital twin environment needs real-world geospatial data at terabyte scale. udSDK renders real-world point clouds inside Unreal Engine and custom frameworks.
- Digital Twin Platform BuildersInfrastructure mandates demand spatial data at resolutions that strain every rendering pipeline. udSDK gives your digital twin platform the rendering backbone for any asset, any scale, any deployment.

Leica Geosystems JetStream
Leica licensed the Unlimited Detail engine and embedded it into their JetStream product line. The SDK integration shipped inside a Tier 1 Hexagon product distributed to the global survey market. 30,000+ production users ran on the engine for years.
Lockheed Martin
Lockheed Martin integrated udSDK into a C2/ISR system. Classified environment. Air-gapped deployment. Government-issue hardware. Zero GPU infrastructure.
University of Queensland
The University of Queensland's Sustainable Minerals Institute, with the Queensland Department of Resources (Geological Survey of Queensland), built a Digital Earth platform on the Unlimited Detail engine. 171,000+ geoscience datasets rendered at full resolution in a single 3D environment on standard hardware.

Four organizations have embedded or deployed the Unlimited Detail engine. The engineering team that supported every one of those integrations is the team that supports yours.
Common questions
Is there an SDK for rendering point clouds without a GPU?
Yes, that is exactly what udSDK is. It embeds the Unlimited Detail engine as a compiled library so your platform renders full-resolution point clouds on the CPU, with no GPU dependency and no file-size ceiling.
Built for your environment
Your engineering team has better problems to solve than building a renderer from scratch.
