Anyone know where I can find a block diagram for this chip? I'd like to overlay it and get a better sense of what each section is doing.

My google foo didn't turn up anything quickly.

My guess is that the top part is the bus/decode, middle part is the ALU and the bottom part is the register bank.

Cool stuff. Works in Firefox on Android for me. Would like to see it made touch friendly.

Works even in IE on windowsphone. This stuff is even more compatible than most WebGL demos out there.

Yes, running on my S3 Android 4.3, which usually fails to run most of the HN posted WebGL demos, although it runs many games without issues.

Very cool, but I'm not sure it was necessary to use WebGL in order to display an essentially 2D object.

[teamhappy → grondilu]

WebGL is actually a 2D graphics API.

Performance I guess.

Looks cool but, what is it computing?
