Every object is dynamically lit
NVIDIA is showing its quad-core Tegra SoC named Kal-El (a mention of the Superman) using the Glowball demo. To many customers, the tech demo shows, well, a glowing ball that comes around, getting together with physically-driven cloth in tangible-time. Since it's title signifies, the ball fires up each and every objects within the scene and (flat) dynamic shadows is visible on the ground.
Towards the a little more expert eyes, this is among the rare instances where every pixel of each and every object inside a scene will get dynamic lighting inside a mobile three dimensional demo. While mobile products happen to be able to DX9-level graphics for a while, the truth is that their pixel equine-energy hasn't arrived at the stage where this kind of things might be done at high framerates.Which s just what NVIDIA demonstrates here: using its next-generation hardware (because of be commercialized this summer time), games will have the ability to use a lot more dynamic lighting and/or pixel effects. Today, even uber-games like Infinity Edge mostly depend on static (pre-calculated) lighting whenever you can, especially off-figures.
But do not your investment computing a part of Kal-El. About the desktop, NVIDIA makes a reputation for itself by speeding up physics about the graphics processor (GPU). However, Kal-El (or Tegra 3 as some refer to it as), has four central processing models (CPU) cores you can use for physics computations.This demo does: it uses multiple cores to compute cloth physics, collisions etc
Overall, the demo does an excellent job of utilizing just as much hardware as you possibly can, also it even includes a 2-core mode to exhibit the main difference. Nevertheless, you are able to rely on game designers to push this even more (just take a look at shadowgun). What is your opinion
Context: at Mobile world Congress, NVIDIA stated it was expecting clients (Asus is rumored to become one) to ship 4-core pills this summer time. NVIDIA has stated it needs individuals to become a lot better than previous-generation pills, and also the word in the pub is the fact that Motorola is focusing on a Tegra 3 phone.
