| Purpose | SONY LVR video data transfer software | 
| Package type | Program | 
| Application area | Visualization | 
| Abstract | The LVR software manipulates video information. In particular, LVR coordinates the transfer of data from a SONY LVR 5000 video disk player to a standard videotape recorder. This allows the PSC to generate user animations directly on the SONY LVR, and then control the creation of a videotape of the animation to be sent to the user. This software is ideal for computer center animation services. |
