NVIDIA To Focus Tegra On “Superphones”

NVIDIA To Focus Tegra On SuperphonesWhen it comes to mobile chipsets, we guess it’s safe to say that Qualcomm is probably the most dominant company. There is NVIDIA, of course, although recently we haven’t seen too many Tegra-based devices, unlike Qualcomm which seems to be everywhere. At some point, we expected to see more mid-range and entry-level handsets with the low-cost Tegra 4i chip, it hasn’t happened and probably will not happen at scale. During the quarterly earnings call, NVIDIA’s CEO said that his company will not focus on the mainstream market, but will instead aim for high-end tablets and “superphones”. Yup, not smartphones, but “superphones”. Arguably handsets like the Galaxy Note 3, Galaxy S5, LG Pro G 2 would fall into that category. Today, they all use a Qualcomm chip. (more…)

    TegraZone Now On All Android Hardware

    TegraZone_ver2-9_02NVIDIA’s TegraZone 2.9 is now able to track one’s collection of games regardless of what device the app is running on. Previously, only NVIDIA Tegra-powered devices were compatible with it, and it’s fair to say that the market has quite a bit of hardware flavor so it’s a great move to support Android as a whole. Among other improvements, version 2.9 adds support for the Google Play games data and services such as reviews & ratings.

    Limelight Pi Lets You Stream PC Games to a Raspberry Pi: Streaming Pi of Shield

    We already saw a very cheap way to emulate the NVIDIA Shield’s game streaming function using a smartphone and VNC. But if you want an even cheaper way – assuming you don’t already have a smartphone – check out Limelight Pi, an open source program that lets you stream Steam games to a Raspberry Pi.

    Made by GitHub member irtimmer, Limelight Pi uses NVIDIA’s GameStream technology to stream your Steam games. Thus, you’ll still need an NVIDIA GTX 600/700 series GPU, NVIDIA’s GeForce Experience program and either a high-end wireless router or an Ethernet connection. Here’s a demo by YouTuber leCauchemarXY. The screen on the left is the one connected to the Raspberry Pi.

    You can download Limelight Pi from irtimmer’s Github page. Limelight Pi is actually a fork of irtimmer’s Limelight, which works on Windows, OS X and Linux computers. So if you’d rather stream to a desktop computer, get Limelight instead of Limelight Pi.
