Hi all!
just a first test, as from attached image, I've generated a 1024x768 pixels as a graph of
y=w*sin(x), w=1/16, 2/16, 3/16,... 16/16
where every single y pixel position as per function y(x) where [x=0...1024] is individually calculated by each of the 16 cores of the Epiphany device in parallel.
As well as I'm using a headless Parallella configuration connected via ssh, I'm showing on my MacBook Pro monitor the image just using VNC Viewer and running on the Parallella Host side the framebuffer-vncserver, witn geometry of 1024x768 pixels.
The program is mapping pixels from graphs directly into the /dev/framebuffer of the Parallella, so the framebuffer-vncserver is showing the output.
I've been able to show some slow animations, too, using this approach.
The Epiphany is really fast, even if the display is very low and anyway this "model" could well work without a monitor and keyboard, headless mode, as per static pixel based graphic representations.
if anybody interested, let me know.
Ciao
