Mathematical Applications Group, Inc. (a.k.a. MAGi or MAGi/SynthaVision) was an early computer technology company founded in 1966 by Dr. Philip Mittelman and located in Elmsford, New York, where it was evaluating nuclear radiation exposure. By modeling structures using combinatorial geometry mathematics and applying monte carlo radiation ray tracing techniques, the mathematicians could estimate exposures at various distances and relative locations in and around fictional structures. In 1972, the graphics group called MAGi/SynthaVision was formed at MAGi by Robert Goldstein.

  • MAGI Synthavision war ein im Jahr 1966 von Philip Mittelman gegründetes Unternehmen für Computertechnik mit Sitz in Elmsford, New York. Mit Hilfe von neu entwickelten Programmen wurde dort der radioaktive Zerfall von Uran und anderen radioaktiven Stoffen simuliert, was ohne Einsatz von Computern nahezu unmöglich gewesen wäre. Ab 1972 boten sie kommerzielle 3D-Computergrafik an, damit waren sie das erste Unternehmen dieser Art. Die Generierung von 3D-Grafiken am Computer wurde kurz vorher von Edwin Catmull erstmals beschrieben. (de)

In 1972, the graphics group called MAGi/SynthaVision was formed at MAGi by Robert Goldstein. It was one of four companies hired to create the CG animation for the film Tron. MAGi was responsible for most of the CG animation in the first half of Tron, while Triple-I worked mainly on the second half of the film. MAGi modeled and animated the light cycles, recognizers and tanks. (en)
