OPPO Unveils World's First Ray Tracing 3D Wallpaper

for Mobile at Game Developer Conference 2022

 

SAN FRANCISCO, US - Media OutReach (https://www.media-outreach.com/)  - 21
March 2022 - Global technology brand OPPO unveiled the industry's first ray
tracing application for smartphones - the ColorOS Ray Tracing 3D
Wallpaper - during the Game Developers Conference 2022 (GDC). At the event,
visitors experienced multiple real-time ray tracing wallpapers on OPPO's
newest flagship device launched in China, the Find X5 Pro (Dimensity
version). The 3D wallpaper application is slated for release through an APK
later this year.

 

 

"As a technology pioneer, OPPO has always actively explored new opportunities
to enrich the mobile experience for our users," said Jane Tian, Head of the
Graphics Product Management at the OPPO US Research Center. "The ability to
take advantage of ray tracing technology across smartphone devices will bring
about more realistic gameplay graphics, for more immersive and competitive
gaming. Our 3D wallpaper will also serve as a starting point to using the
technology to explore future applications in smart devices."

 

Ray tracing is a graphics rendering technology that simulates the physical
behavior of light and has been adopted on computers in the past. By adopting
ray tracing technology, the 3D wallpapers can render light in real-time at
usable frame rates, making shadows, reflections and refractions of objects
displayed appear more vivid and life-like. It also provides users with the
ability to interact with their wallpapers through a series of hand gestures
including rotating, tapping and waving.

 

 

OPPO began developing its ray tracing technology early in 2018 and had
initially adopted a hybrid rendering method to gradually introduce ray tracing
to existing mobile devices. For the ColorOS Ray Tracing 3D Wallpaper, OPPO
came up with a new approach to accelerate ray tracing performance by adopting
hybrid architecture and dedicated hardware cores on the Find X5 Pro (Dimensity
version), fully utilizing the potential of the MediaTek Dimensity 9000 chipset
and the Arm Mali GPU. The 3D wallpaper demoed at GDC 2022 is a testament to
the company's unrelenting effort to bring new technologies and creative
experiences to mobile devices.

 

Later this year, OPPO will introduce the 3D wallpaper application as an APK to
users of the Find X5 Pro (Dimensity version), as well as to global developers,
artists, designers in an SDK package to help enable their creativity.
