Abstract
The rise of artificial intelligence (AI) is happening everywhere across the vast spectrum of technology and computing. A significant part of AI’s growth is taking place on mobile. This is not just the standard functions and applications built into the mobile device, but across a broad range of new and innovative mobile applications.
This is made possible by the ubiquitous Arm compute platform that is already powering more than 2.5 billion consumer devices with AI capabilities and creating the foundation for a wave new AI-based applications. In the smartphone space alone, 99 percent of all smartphones run on the Arm CPU.
The impact of AI and machine learning (ML) on the evolution of mobile gaming and graphics promises to be a significant development. For the user, it means better, more visually immersive gaming experiences, while for developers it provides an accelerated time-to-market, improved performance, and reduced overall costs when creating game applications.
This report explores how AI and ML can supercharge graphics for immersive mobile gaming and mobile experiences, not only today but in the future. This is creating stunning visual experiences and more immersive gameplay that is redefining the future of mobile computing, as well as bringing significant improvements to the overall game development process.
As we explain, AI and ML workloads are creating the innovation foundation for visual experiences that we have yet to imagine and a mobile future defined by a level of graphical realism that will amaze users everywhere. This represents a truly exciting future for mobile, with Arm providing the foundational technologies, tools, and support for the future of AI and ML on mobile. These include:
CPU and GPU technologies
Arm Compute Subsystem (CSS) for Client
Arm Kleidi
New graphics techniques and features
Software development kits
Developer tools
