Ticker Tape
Intel Corporation
Features / Description
Ticker Tape is a tech demo that showcases complex particle movement using aerodynamic calculations such as lift and drag. This is all done at high framerates by utilizing an n-way threaded framework and SIMD optimizations. Included in the demo is the capability to dynamically vary the number of threads and usage of Intel® Streaming SIMD Extensions (Intel® SSE) so the benefits of both can be easily seen.
