New Patent Approved For Microsoft Tells More About Xbox2 ?
>> From TeamXbox.com:
[QUOTE]
Today, we are bringing you a detailed analysis of a recent patent application made by Microsoft, which was approved on December 30th by the United States Patent and Trademark Office.
The patent not only exposes a real-life implementation of this “procedural synthesis” technique (special programs that create realistic bricks, trees, and other environmental objects, leveraging game artists from spending long hours creating repetitive geometry) but also corroborates some of the leaked Xbox 2 specs.
The patent relates to a “System and method for parallel execution of data generation tasks,” which in layman terms refers to specialized hardware that uses different processing units to simultaneously perform a series of tasks. The system described in the patent can be implemented on any kind of platform and the document mentions both the PC and Microsoft’s Xbox as examples.
To our surprise, the first drawing in the patent looks almost identical to some of the leaked Xbox 2 schematics that were released last year.
After reading the whole patent and analyzing the drawings, we have no doubt this new invention will be implemented in some form in the next Xbox.
