May Contain Hardware Acceleration: Building a 3D Graphics Accelerator in FPGA for the MCH2022 Badge
Ruud Schellekens
The MCH2022 Badge is an wonderful piece of hardware, with a great screen, a dual-core ESP32 CPU, and an Lattice FPGA to act as a co-processor. What if we could use the power of the FPGA to render 3D graphics? In this talk I'll take you through the basics of 3D rendering, the challenges of doing this on the Badge, and how I made the little Lattice produce pretty polygons.
Wonderful creations
