AVX Cloth

Intel Corporation

This sample has been retired as it either was developed for earlier generation hardware or the sample has been superseded by a newer sample with an advanced algorithm. The sample is still available for download if desired.

Features / Description

AVX Cloth is a tech sample that demonstrates use of 8 wide floating point SIMD processing with 256 bit Intel® Advanced Vector Extensions (Intel® AVX). The sample has many active cloth pieces simulating as it showcases an SOA implementation of an iterative position projection (distance constraint based) solver.
