PipelineC-Graphics
Graphics demos implemented using PipelineC.
This primarily consists of a ray tracing demo created using CflexHDL C++ code.
Work contained in these repositories is experimental and in active development. Please report any issues that are encountered.
Sphery vs. Shapes:
A fully working interactive raytraced game written in C and translated to a circuit. No CPU is used, and the few resources used run at an outstanding power efficiency. Check out a demo video of gameplay on real hardware!

Building
Boards supported are the Digilent Arty-100T and the OrangeCrab 85F v0.2.
For the Arty: make clean BOARD=digilent_arty FRAME_WIDTH=1920 FRAME_HEIGHT=1080 load
For the OrangeCrab: make clean BOARD=gsd_orangecrab load (default 640x480 resolution, uses open source toolchain for synthesis)
You need to select DVI=True or DVI=False in litex_soc.py to output digital video or analog video with a VGA PMOD
Full pipelining can take some hours, for faster processing you can try simulation options like make sim, make gen, or make verilator
