NVIDIA showcase the power of Tegra 3 |
Graphics develops NVIDIA have been treating the smartphone and tablet industry to a glimpse of what could be in-store for future devices, as they reveal the potential of the upcoming Tegra 3 release...
NVIDIA have been at Computex giving a demonstration of the unique capabilities of its line of Tegra 3 mobile chips. They have released a video that shows the power and potential of their upcoming quad-core chip (which has been nicknamed “Project Kal-El). The video features a presentation of a game called 'Glowball', which has been specifically designed to fully exploit the stunning power available to the new quad-core chips.
Some of the impressive features that are integrated into the demo include true dynamic lighting, which is rendered in real-time for the first time on a mobile device. The main attraction of the demonstration was undoubtedly the demo of the real-time physics processing across the 4 CPU cores. This enabled a draped cloth to respond to the environment in unprecedented degrees of accuracy, providing an unparalleled sense of realism to the game. NVIDIA also demonstrated what would happen to game with two of the quad-cores disabled: the result was visible degradation of the demo’s capabilities.
The game works by sending the 'glowball' (which serves as the source of light to highlight the main points of the demo) through the platform. It illuminates the various points in real-time, something which had been extremely difficult to achieve, for computational reasons, previously. The demonstration marks the first time that this kind of lighting has been able to be achieved on a mobile device, and is seen as a great step forward for graphics, opening up the doors of possibilities for future games and apps.
