In the days before the opening of Computex in Taiwan, Nvidia has posted a technology demonstration of its future Tegra chip 3, aka Kal-El. This video "Glowball" especially emphasizes capacity unpublished Tegra 3, namely the dynamic lighting and physics calculations (here on the fabric). Tegra 3/Kal-El was announced in February with a release date scheduled for August.
His appearance at Computex is logical, pre-production chips to be available several months before sale. According to the roadmap from Nvidia, Kal-El would offer performance greater than 5 times Tegra 2. To do this, Tegra 3 doubles the number of hearts ARM Cortex A9 (four instead of two) and increase by 50% the number of shader GeForce built (12 units instead of 8).
The ARM core also has a computing unit NEON SIMD, absent Tegra 2, which will greatly contribute to making the physics calculations. Finally, Kal-El should demonstrate the ability to decode 1080p H.264 High Profile video where Tegra 2 does not exceed the Simple Profile.
