2、nsImagination Technologies 20254RISC-V is raisingRISC-V CPU performance grow fastRISC-V IP ecosystem get strongRISC-V based SoC shipment is boomingImagination Technologies 20255Graphics is the key for RISC-V next level successConsumer market is key to grow RISC-V from a hobby to a business Consumer

3、are looking for a seamless way to interactive with electronicsFluid Graphics user experience is a must in a modern RISC-V designImagination Technologies 20256But Graphics for RISC-V is under challengingGraphics performance relay heavily on software optimizationSSAO(Screen Space Ambient Occlusion),TA

4、A(Temporal Anti-Aliasing),MSAA(Multisample Anti-Aliasing)etc.All commercial level GPUs software are well optimized for x86/arm,not RISC-VGraphics has a very complex software stackDevelopers are hard to get GPU hardware detailsImagination Technologies 20257Open source is the solutionRISC-V community

5、work on a common graphic stack to avoid the work duplicationSilicon/Software vendors build their unique values based on open sourceCustomers get more transparency and securityCustomers get flexible update and longer maintenanceThe whole RISC-V ecosystem get more innovation and cooperationImagination
