Chromium provides an infrastructure in which modules, known as SPUs or Stream Processing Units, can be inserted. For each OpenGL command, a SPU can modify, discard, or forward it to the next SPU. Chromium supports a client/server architecture. The last SPU in a node can choose to either pass it to another local OpenGL implementation, such as an ATI or nVidia graphics card, or send it over a network to one or more Chromium Servers.

There are differences and similarities between the [[Google Chrome|Chrome]] and Chromium released by Google Inc. These are:
  
Uses include:
 
  
    * Providing OpenGL for multimachine, multimonitor displays. Chromium can be used to provide OpenGL for Xdmx displays.
+
* Chromium is a open source code software, unlike Chrome is closed code one.
    * Moving an OpenGL stream from one machine to another. For example, an OpenGL application running in a Windows Virtual Machine, without 3d acceleration, can make use of full hardware 3d acceleration on a Linux host machine via the use of Chromium.
+
* Developing imrovements in Chrome firstly is tried on Chromium and then moved to Chrome. Chromium mostly is used for developing.
    * Manipulating an OpenGL stream. Chromium can be used to make polygons an application renders transparent.
+
* Both of them have version in Windows, Linux and Mac OS X.
    * Via stream manipulation, Chromium can make non-stereoscopic applications stereoscopic.
+
 
    * High performance, sort-last configurations. Chromium can be used to split an OpenGL command stream, so that different machines can do different parts of the rendering work. This is like nVidia's SLI but it supports multiple machines.
