Browser-Based VGA 1D Cellular Automata Simulation
2025-01-08
Alexander Mordvintsev's TinyTapeout '09 project runs a 60fps 640x480 VGA signal directly in your browser. This single 160x100 μm chip simulates a scrolling animation of several elementary 1D cellular automata rules. The WebAssembly-based simulator, visualized with SwissGL, displays gate-level activations. This demonstrates impressive computational density, showcasing the ability to fit complex calculations onto a tiny chip. Links to the design repository and demo page are provided.
