Abstract

In one implementation, a system includes a multi-core processor and an optical display with a plurality of hogels. Each hogel is configured to radiate light in a plurality of directions, with controllable intensities in each of the plurality of directions. The multi-core processor is coupled to the optical display and configured to control the hogels. The multi-core processor includes at least two cores, an on-chip memory, and a master processor in a single integrated circuit package. The master processor may be a general-purpose on-chip processor, such as a core in the multi-core processor, that is used to coordinated operations of the other cores. Each of the cores is configured to receive hogel data and to generate signals for a corresponding subset of the plurality of hogels.
