| Think Silicon GPUs get JPEG Decoding from Alma Technologies | | |
February 2, 2012 -- Think Silicon, Ltd. and Alma Technologies SA announced today the immediate availability of Graphics Accelerator IP Cores pre-integrated and verified with the silicon-proven JPEG cores of Alma Technologies.
The combination of MJPEG decoding and graphics acceleration can provide a fluid user experience even at very low frequency or low gate-count devices.
The MJPEG decoder is fully integrated in the graphics pipeline taking full advantage of the graphics pipeline features, such as rotations, blending and dithering and minimizing additional hardware resources.
Think2.5D Graphics Accelerator Engine is a graphics subsystem IP core for SOC and embedded devices for the acceleration of 2.5D content. It is a powerful and lean accelerator, capable of targeting multiple types of surface formats, displaying perspective corrected images in 2.5D space, accelerating drawing of lines, triangles and quadrilaterals and performing alpha blending in all target modes. The use of command lists with in a fire-and-forget minimizes CPU overhead and comes complete with DirectFB Linux Drivers.
