BitBoys: Acceleon Announced

Published by

Looks like BitBoys are making a return with the Acceleon? family of graphics processors G10, G20, G30 for PDA's at SIGGRAPH 2003.

The Acceleon G30 graphics processor takes handheld graphics hardware to a completely new level and opens up new worlds to be visualized in full color 3D graphics. Increased functionality and support make Acceleon G30? the most complete solution of the Acceleon? family, allowing for perfect functionality in any device type.

Acceleon G20 introduces more hardware accelerated 3D graphics features to the Acceleon? family of graphics processors, including texturing and surface shading. Texturing provides for a significant increase in image quality, while hardware decompression allows for a 4x reduction in standard texture storage requirements, saving precious memory space and bandwidth. Surface shading allows for more visual realism with object lighting and gradients.

Acceleon G10 mobile graphics core is the first step in the true evolution of vector, 2D and 3D graphics acceleration on a mobile device. Providing hardware acceleration for both vector and polygon graphics, Acceleon G10 provides a unique blend of hardware functionality.
