10 Mali GPU Graphics Leadership Diverse range of partners across wide product array Major game engines tuned for Mali GPUs Wide array of middleware and software partners Market Leadership Rapid shipment growth Diverse range of devices Strong Android presence Mature Ecosystem Technology Leadership English and China sites Rich array of tools, white papers, examples, etc. Active community support Strong Developer Support Highly scalable solutions Rich API support OpenGL ES 3.0, Renderscript, Filterscript Advanced texture compression support (ASTC) 10

11 What is GPU Compute? Enables offloading of tasks from CPU to GPU CPUs designed for sequential and lower latency tasks, GPU more suited to parallelized tasks Having both allows you to match workloads to the most appropriate hardware 11

12 What GPU Compute Support ARM s CPU know-how combined with expertise in graphics technology enabling new use-cases Image improvement: Stabilization, editing, filtering Computational photography: Panorama stitching Image recognition: Face, smile, landmark, context GPU s designed to create many pixels at once can also process many pixels at once Moving the right workloads to the GPU can not only reduce response times but lower power and free up the CPU 12

13 GPU Compute Benefits For DTVs Gesture control even small gestures and in low lighting Facial detection enabling personalization of content to the people watching (e.g. match of content with audience) Stops content when person stops watching Upscaling and 2D-3D conversion Real time video processing and enhancement Image improvement: Stabilization, editing, filtering 13

14 GPU Compute in Tablets & Phones Automatic photo enhancement invisible to the user including framing, lighting correction Video stabilization and video correction to improve final video Apply filters to pictures and video footage in real-time ISP replacement flexible, tune to devices or OEMs, upgradable Video editing remove unwanted images, correct lighting, add effects, change background Photo filtering - enabling identification of smiles, open eyes Facial unlock Gesture control even in low lighting 14
