A high end ray tracing graphics core is shipping with a customisable RISC-V core from German developer Codasip as the first step to integrated low power AR chips.
SiliconArts in Korea is also working with Codasip to combine IP for integrated CPU/GPU designs for augmented reality and virtual reality (AR/VR) applications as well as customization and optimization services.
Initially the application-specific Codasip 7-series RISC-V processors will ship with Codasip Studio customization tools alongside the SiliconArts ray tracing GPU core for high performance AR chips. SiliconArts has full access to Codasip’s architecture licenses so that designers can use the Studio tools to customjse the core for AR graphics applications.
