  • Recently, Khronos institude OpenGL ES 2.0 API for support Shader 3.0 model that can possible variable graphic processing. For this reason, the mobile device have need of supporting processor for a shader 3.0 model. We should extend instruction's length to support OpenGL ES 2.0 API, so we need more memory size. In this paper, we propose a new instruction form that adopted variable length and unit instruction architecture. This proposed instruction architecture that support to Shader 3.0 model has consist of 32bit unit instructions up to 4 which can be combined for embellishing each other. Therefore, it can execute flexible instruction combination and reduce waste of instruction fields.

  • In this study, the performance tests for single and dual micro processor configurations are performed to investigate how the accelerated OpenGL components and applications are dependent on processor configurations. At present, many major providers of the engineering graphics workstations have recommended that multiprocessors are better than single processor. However, we confirmed that the single processor configuration is more faster and more effective than competitive configurations and suggested the economic method to improve the performance of the engineering graphics workstations.

  • Based on current practical needs for geo-spatial information on mobile platform, the main theme of this study is a design and implementation of dynamic 3D terrain rendering system using spaceborne imagery, as a kind of texture image for photo-realistic 3D scene generation on mobile environment. Image processing and 3D graphic techniques and algorithms, such as TIN-based vertex generation with regular spacing elevation data for generating 3D terrain surface, image tiling and image-vertex texturing in order to resolve limited resource of mobile devices, were applied and implemented by using graphic pipeline of OpenGL|ES (Embedded System) API. Through this implementation and its tested results with actual data sets of DEM and satellite imagery, we demonstrated the realizable possibility and adaptation of complex typed and large sized 3D geo-spatial information in mobile devices. This prototype system can be used to mobile 3D applications with DEM and satellite imagery in near future.

  • In this paper, two-stage pipelined floating-point multiplier (FP-MUL) is designed. The FP-MUL processor supports single precision multiplication for 3D graphic APIs, such as OpenGL and Direct3D and has area-efficient and low-latency architecture via saturated arithmetic, area-efficient sticky-bit generator, and flagged prefix adder. The FP-MUL has about 4-ns delay time under $0.13{\mu}m$ CMOS standard cell library and consists of about 7,500 gates. Because its maximum performance is about 250 MFLOPS, it can be applicable to mobile 3D graphics application.

  • The learning application of the rotating object utilizing smart devices, it is possible by using the touch functionality and 3D graphics to enhance the realism and operational feeling, and to overcome the limitations of learning content existing. In this study, I designed a "rotation class" based on the learning contents of elementary and middle mathematics education and developed the learning application which driven by smart Android-based device by using Andoroid API class and the OpenGL ES Because this application is driven by the smart devices, learners easily can make the rotated objects and observe them. It can be utilized in various for elementary and middle education.

  • Various kinds of tile-based ultra-high resolution display devices have been developed by, for example, constructing display walls using many commodity LCD displays. To represent 3D applications like computer games on these devices, one has to develop 3D applications or develop particular APIs only for representing on these devices. If one can develop a distributed rendering system using legacy 3D APIs such as OpenGL and Direct3D by extending a remote rendering system, commercial computer games can be represented on such display devices without modifying their source codes. The purpose of the paper is to propose a new Dired3D-based distribute rendering system by extending a Direct3D-based remote rendering system and to show its feasibility technically by appling it to a sample Direct3D application and performing a few experimentations.

  • A new algorithm of the image mapping which is a technique of the elemental image generation is proposed. The proposed method is based on the characteristics of the lens array such as the number, the size and the focal length of the elemental lens. The 3D image generated by 3D graphic API such as OpenGL can be directly adopted without the complex adaptation. Since the image mapping using the proposed method can enhance the speed of the elemental image generation, the computer- generated integral imaging system can be applied to virtual reality system.

  • To efficiently execute 3D graphic APIs, such as OpenGL and Direct3D, special purpose arithmetic unit(SFU) which supports floating-point sine, cosine, reciprocal, inverse square root, base-two exponential, and logarithmic operations is designed. The SFU uses second order minimax approximation method and lookup table method to satisfy both error less than 2 ulp(unit in the last place) and high speed operation. The designed circuit has about 2.3-ns delay time under 65nm CMOS standard cell library and consists of about 23,300 gates. Due to its maximum performance of 400 MFLOPS and high accuracy, it can be efficiently applicable to mobile 3D graphics application.
