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:
“An open foe may prove a curse,
But a pretended friend is worse.”
—John Gay (1685–1732)
“It is beyond a doubt that during the sixteenth century, and the years immediately preceding and following it, poisoning had been brought to a pitch of perfection which remains unknown to modern chemistry, but which is indisputably proved by history. Italy, the cradle of modern science, was at that time, the inventor and mistress of these secrets, many of which are lost.”
—Honoré De Balzac (1799–1850)
