History
The original Voxel Space engine was patented in 1996, and first released in software in the 1992 release Comanche Maximum Overkill. The engine was then revamped into Voxel Space 2, and later Voxel Space 32 and used in Armored Fist 3 and Delta Force 2.
The technology was based on that of MRI Scanners and similar technology was used in games such as Outcast. With the advance of computation power in modern computers there do exist browser based versions of similar technology based on the Voxel Space terrain rendering used in Comanche.
The version of the engine used in the Comanche series utilized ray-tracing every pixel of the volumetric terrain data.
