Aspects presented herein relate to methods and devices for graphics processing including an apparatus, e.g., client device or a server. The apparatus may transmit, during a first time period, a plurality of head poses associated with a plurality of positions of the client device, the first time period being associated with a downlink activation time period for at least one previous frame. The apparatus may also receive, during a second time period after the first time period, at least one first frame including first content based on the plurality of head poses, the first time period and the second time period being synchronized with the server, the at least one first frame occurring after the at least one previous frame. Further, the apparatus may display, upon receiving the at least one first frame during the second time period, the at least one first frame including the first content.

An electronic apparatus and method of operating the electronic apparatus, to simultaneously display execution screen images of a first OS and a second OS are provided. The method includes obtaining screen image data of the second OS based on graphic data processed by the second OS; obtaining, by the first OS, at least one of control information related to the screen image data of the second OS and memory mapping information of the second OS; converting the screen image data of the second OS into graphic data of the first OS based on the at least one of the control information and the memory mapping information; generating screen image data of the first OS based on the graphic data of the first OS, the screen image data of the first OS including the screen image data of the second OS; and displaying the screen image data of the first OS.

Performance counters provided in a graphics processor unit (GPU) are used to provide values used to make a determination of GPU activity so that power management can be exercised. In preferred embodiments counter values relating to computation unit idle times, computation unit stall times, DRAM bandwidth and computation unit stall times due to a sampler wait are utilized to determine performance level. If performance is above a minimum level but the GPU is above certain idleness determinations provided by those values, the GPU can have portions powered down to reduce power consumption while not having a noticeable effect on operations. Based on the various counter values, portions of the GPU can be turned off or disabled to reduce power consumption without having a noticeable effect on perceived GPU performance.

An image generation apparatus includes at least a first configuration register that includes first configuration data for configuring parameters of an image processor, at least a second configuration register that includes second configuration data for configuring the parameters of a same image processing pipeline in the image processor, multiplexing logic coupled to the first configuration register and to the second configuration register, control logic that controls the multiplexing logic to in a non-demonstration mode select one of the first or second configuration registers to produce a first image frame and operative in a demonstration mode to provide both the first and second configuration data for the same image processing pipeline of the image processor to use for generating different regions of an image frame.

Disclosed herein are system, method, and computer program product embodiments for modifying graphics rendering by transcoding a serialized command stream. An embodiment operates by receiving a command configured to instruct an API to render a graphics element. The embodiment further operates by generating, based on the command, a transcoded command configured to instruct the API to render a modified graphics element by applying a set of modification factors to a portion of the command. Subsequently, the embodiment operates by transmitting the transcoded command to the API.

Examples disclosed herein relate to a computing device. In one aspect, the computing device may include a housing including a first point and a second point spatially separated from each other, a first and second wireless communications modules, and a controller. A first waveguide may couple the first point to an input of the first wireless communications module, where an output of the first wireless communications module may be coupled to an input of the controller. A second waveguide may couple the second point to an output of the second communications module, where an input of the second communications module may be coupled to an output of the controller.

Embodiments described herein provide for a display system to generate and display data on a display device, the display system comprising one or more graphics processors to generate one or more frames of data for display on the display device; display logic to receive a request to display the one or more frames of data, the request including a requested presentation time in which the one or more frames of data are to be displayed; and a display engine to present the one or more frames of data to the display device for display at a target presentation time, the target presentation time derived from the requested presentation time, wherein the display engine is to adjust a refresh rate of the display device based on the target presentation time of the one or more frames of data.

A display control apparatus includes an attitude detection unit and a display control unit. The attitude detection unit is configured to detect an attitude of a display unit. The display control unit, in a case where the attitude of the display unit detected by the attitude detection unit is a first attitude, is configured to display a certain display object on the display unit and after having displayed the certain display object for a first period to cancel display of the certain display object, and in a case where the attitude of the display unit detected by the attitude detection unit is a second attitude different from the first attitude by 90 degrees, is configured to display the certain display object on the display unit and after having displayed the certain display object for the first period not to cancel display of the certain display object.

Power demand reduction for image generation for displays skips rendering of frames that are highly similar based on a comparison of certain parameters associated with draw calls. A first set of draw calls is received from a game engine by a central processing unit (CPU) circuit and then a second set of draw calls are provided to the CPU circuit. The CPU circuit compares the second set of draw calls to the first set of draw calls. If there is a change in at least one parameter that exceeds a threshold, then the CPU circuit sends the second set of draw calls to a graphics processing unit (GPU) circuit for rendering. If, however, the change in selected parameters is below the threshold, then the CPU circuit sends an earlier rendered image to the display for presentation to the user, effectively omitting usage of the GPU circuit for that frame.

A method, computer program product, and system for selectively disabling temporal dithering is disclosed. The method includes the steps of configuring a display device to refresh utilizing a dynamic refresh rate to display images and selectively disabling temporal dithering of the images based on the dynamic refresh rate. Selectively disabling temporal dithering may comprise determining a dynamic refresh rate associated with a current frame of image data and disabling temporal dithering for the current frame of image data when the dynamic refresh rate is less than a first threshold value, or enabling temporal dithering for the current frame of image data when the dynamic refresh rate is greater than or equal to a second threshold value.
