    摘要: The present invention relates to the architecture and use of a computer system optimized for the efficient modeling of graphics. The computer system has a primary processor and a graphics processor. The primary processor has two vector processor units within it, one which is closely connected to central processor unit. Simultaneously performing complex modeling calculations on the first vector processor and CPU, and geometry transformation calculations on the second vector processor, allows for efficient modeling of graphics. Furthermore, the graphics processor is optimized to rapidly switch between data flow from the two vector processors. In addition, the graphics processor is able to render many pixels simultaneously, and has a local memory on the graphics processor chip that acts as a frame buffer, texture buffer, and z buffer. This allows a high fill rate to the frame buffer.

    摘要: An entertainment apparatus is configured to enable a program for an older version of the apparatus to be executed. In a normal mode, a main processing unit (MPU) operates as a main CPU, a graphics processor (GP) operates as a graphics processor, and an input/output subprocessor (IOP) operates as a subprocessor for input and output. In a compatible mode in which a program for an older version of the apparatus is executed, the IOP capable of executing the program for the older version of the apparatus operates as a main CPU, and the MPU and GP emulate a graphics processor for the older version of the apparatus.

    摘要: There are provided a geometry transfer engine (GTE) 61 and a graphic processing unit (GPU 62) which act in combination as a transforming means for converting three-dimensional image data retrieved from a CD-ROM disk into two-dimensional image data for drawing an image on a two-dimensional display screen, and a frame buffer 63 which serves as a memory having an image data storage area (picture data area) for storage of the image data and at least a color data tables storage area (CLUT area) for storage of multiple color lookup data tables in a two-dimensional arrangement, each color data table including a color data wherein the structure is arranged substantially identical to that of each pixel of data in the image. A greater number of colors are thus facilitated and the data processing is simplified.

    摘要: The second graphic data for display is obtained by performing reduction processing using over-sampling on the first graphic data corresponding to the image generated by performing texture mapping processing based on polygon data, thereby the resolution of an image comprising the first graphic data is enhanced maintaining the memory capacity minimized, thus the display resolution of the second graphic data is enhanced. Further, each pixel of an component of the second graphic data is the average value of adjacent four pixels in the first graphic data, hence, for example, a 16 bit direct color image is equivalent to a 24-bit full color image.

    摘要: An ID (MID) is attached to each individual optical disk, and content is encrypted with a Content-Key and registered. In addition, a system server device maintains a Client ID of a client terminal device, HDD-ID of a hard disk drive (HDD), and MC-ID of a memory card respectively held as user entry information. When the user wants to copy the content, together with the optical disk MID, the MC-ID is sent to the system server side. The system server device identifies the user by referencing the MC-ID in the user entry information, and returns a Content-Key, which is used when encoding content. On the user side, content stored in the optical disk is decrypted using the returned Content-Key and copied to the HDD. Accordingly, copying of content is allowed only for an authorized user who is the lawful owner of the storage media.
