AMD “mero” El SoC semipersonalizado impulsa los auriculares Magic Leap AR de última generación

Magic Leap’s next-generation augmented reality (AR) headset could be AMD-powered according to a Basemark benchmark listing seen by _Rogame. The chip driving this headset is codenamed “mero,” and is a semi-custom SoC made by AMD. The SoC combines a CPU based on the “Zen 2” microarquitectura, with an iGPU based on RDNA2. Basemark reads this as 8 Núcleos de CPU, although it’s possible this is 4-core/8-thread.

En este punto, the RDNA2 compute unit (CU) count is unknown. Magic Leap uses an Android 10-derived OS for the x86-64 machine architecture, and the system name reads as “Magic Leap Demophon” to Basemark (which could just be the prototype’s network machine name). The AR display-head is 720 x 920 pixeles, and the memory available to the OS is 1 GB (not counting the memory shared to the iGPU).
