Næste Photoshop: GPU & physics accelereret

Verdens nok mest kendte foto- og billedredigeringsprogram, kommer i næste udgave til at være både GPU og physics accelereret.

Adobe tog skridet med det nok ligeså kendte Acrobat Reader, der allerede nu, får hjælp af grafikkortet, når de tunge dokumenter åbnes i programmet. Adobe mener altså at Photoshop trænger til samme overhaling, der skal blive den mest effektive opdatering i de 14 år programmet har eksisteret.



"So, what can you do with general-purpose GPU (GPGPU) acceleration in Photoshop? We saw the presenter playing with a 2 GB, 442 megapixel image like it was a 5 megapixel image on an 8-core Skulltrail system. Changes made through image zoom and a new rotate canvas tool were applied almost instantly. Another impressive feature was the import of a 3D model into Photoshop, adding text and paint on a 3D surface and having that surface directly rendered with the 3D models' reflection map."
