Samsung, a global leader in smartphone technology, continues to set new benchmarks in the world of mobile devices with its revolutionary Galaxy Foldable Smartphones. The latest additions to the Galaxy Z series, including the Galaxy Z Flip5 and Z Fold5, have garnered unprecedented attention from consumers, making waves in South Korea and Europe.

In the second part of a two-part series, Samsung Newsroom delves deeper into the remarkable technologies that power these foldable devices and aims to simplify the related jargon for everyone’s understanding.

Samsung introduces the Dynamic AMOLED 2X, a cutting-edge mobile display technology that takes the original Dynamic AMOLED from 2019 to new heights. Tailored for high-speed gaming and multitasking, this enhanced display offers 100% accurate DCI-P3 color gamut for vibrant colors and contrast. It ensures a seamless user experience with smoother scrolling, swift response times, and HDR10+ certification. Most notably, the adaptive refresh rate has been upgraded from 60Hz to 120Hz, delivering an unparalleled display performance.

Adaptive Refresh Rate technology dynamically adjusts the screen’s refresh rate based on the content being displayed, providing a silky-smooth user experience while optimizing battery life.

Auto Framing is a unique feature that automatically adjusts the camera angle based on the number of people in the frame. It narrows the view for a single person and widens it when the camera detects two or more individuals. Additionally, the screen follows the movement of the photographer, allowing tracking within a range of approximately two-and-a-half to three meters. Capturing dynamic scenes, such as people dancing or children playing, becomes effortlessly enjoyable. The Auto Framing feature in conjunction with Flex Mode ensures that everyone in a large group remains within the frame.

Nightography, a powerful camera capability, was introduced with the Galaxy S22 and is designed to enhance color vibrancy and picture quality in low-light environments. By capturing a series of images and applying multi-frame processing (MFP) technology, it effectively eliminates noise and blurry shots. An HDR effect is applied to create clear and vivid photos, and AI image signal processing (ISP) algorithms enhance colors and details. The Super Night Solution enables users to capture bright and crisp videos without any visual noise.

Derived from the Greek word “nitere,” which means “to shine,” nit is a unit of luminance used to measure the brightness emitted from a smartphone or computer display. This unit ensures that smartphone displays remain visible in varying lighting conditions, particularly in outdoor environments.

Samsung’s Fast Wireless Charging 2.0 is a groundbreaking wireless charging technology standard. Initially showcased at Galaxy Unpacked 2015 with the introduction of the Galaxy Note5, this technology has evolved to support faster wireless charging options, including 10W, 12W, and 15W, using a magnetic field-induced fast-charging mechanism.

With the Galaxy Z Flip5 and Z Fold5, Samsung once again demonstrates its commitment to pushing the boundaries of mobile technology. These devices offer cutting-edge features, setting new standards in display quality, camera capabilities, and wireless charging speed. As Samsung continues to innovate, consumers can look forward to an even more exciting future for the world of foldable smartphones.

Samsung is a global leader in technology and innovation. The company’s extensive range of products and services are designed to enrich people’s lives and make the world a better place. Samsung’s commitment to excellence and innovation has made it a trusted and respected brand worldwide.

As Sri Lanka’s No. 1 smartphone brand, Samsung has been awarded the prestigious title of ‘People’s Youth Choice Brand of the Year’ for four consecutive years by SLIM Sri Lanka’s review of the country’s most valuable brands. Samsung’s customer base in Sri Lanka spans across all age groups, with a particular focus on the Gen Z and Millennial segments.

BARCELONA, SPAIN – Media OutReach – 27 February 2023 – Global leading technology company OnePlus today announces a technical partnership with Perfect World Games on ray tracing technology. Both parties work closely to bring the ray tracing technology to Tower of Fantasy in-game play on the OnePlus 11 5G.

“We’re extremely thrilled to cooperate with Perfect World Games to showcase this industry-leading technology that shapes the future of mobile gaming experience on the OnePlus 11 5G”, said Kinder Liu, OnePlus COO and Head of R&D. “OnePlus is dedicated to providing the most immersive game experience to our users and today we take this experience to a new level”.

“We’re excited to cooperate with OnePlus to apply this advanced technology that previously only be seen on PCs in mobile phone,” said Dan Xu at Perfect World Games. “As a leading game developer, our mission is to bring the best experience to gamers, and ray tracing technology will dramatically transform the in-game experience”.

Ray Tracing on Mobile Gaming

Ray tracing is a technology that enables dynamic in-game lighting, reflections, cross-physics illuminations and shadows, allowing for extreme environmental realism when gaming. The newly launched OnePlus 11 5G is equipped with Snapdragon® 8 Gen 2 mobile platform that supports hardware accelerated ray tracing technology, which provides the opportunity for OnePlus to work with Perfect World Games to fully explore the potential of ray tracing on mobile.

Ray Tracing in Open World MMORPG on Mobile

Compared to traditional MMORPG games, incorporating ray tracing in open-world games has significant technical challenges, especially on mobile platform. Perfect World Games developed techniques such as a distance-based dynamic object frame-updating mechanism and range-based ray tracing culling based on light source perspective, which enables players to experience real-time stable frames while enjoying ray tracing effects. Additionally, for the open-world scenes in Tower of Fantasy, the ray tracing acceleration structures are further optimized through employing small object culling and view frustum culling based on camera frustum solid angle. By accurately simulating the propagation and interaction of light rays, players can immerse themselves in the Vera desert and experience the more realistic effect of flames from the surroundings and the hot sand underfoot.

Normally, open world MMORPG game experience is more immersive than traditional MMORPG game due to more realism detailed objects, and this experience is further elevated by ray tracing technology. Occlusion and shadows in open world scenes are accurately calculated to precisely illuminate and shade the objects of all sizes and scales in Tower of Fantasy. This is totally different with traditional rendering methods which often miss intricate details in scenes, leading to inaccurate or missing occlusion and shadows. For instance, by calculating the occlusion effect of the scene under a uniform intensity of light, ray tracing on Tower of Fantasy enhances and improves the contrast between light and dark in the visuals, achieving more realistic shadows and ultimately adding a stronger sense of spatial depth and realism to the game’s environments.

The introduction of mobile ray tracing technology also enables more accurate capturing of shadows and occlusion effects of objects in the distance and behind other objects, resulting in better visual performance compared to traditional rendering techniques.

Moreover, with mobile ray tracing enabled, the game improves the effect of simulating the absorption of physically accurate light as it passes through and reflects off water surfaces. Difficulty here is that light is comprised of various wavelengths of light waves, and when these light waves enter the water, they are absorbed differently.

Ray Tracing on the OnePlus 11 5G

The objective for this partnership is to improve the visual and performance experience on mobile device. To improve the graphics quality, engineers from OnePlus and Perfect World Games co-developed the Real-time Inline Ray Tracing Pipeline and a novel Fast Temporal Convergence Algorithm for Ambient Occlusion, specifically tailored to meet the demands of “Tower of Fantasy” by utilizing a forward rendering pipeline.

To cope with the demanding graphics computing power brought by ray tracing technology, the Spatiotemporal Oversampling is employed. Thanks to its over-the-top hardware specs including 16GB LPDDR5X RAM, 256GB ROM with UFS 4.0, and the new Cryo-velocity VC Cooling System, the OnePlus 11 5G can support the real-time rendering of mobile ray tracing on the graphics of Tower of Fantasy.

From February 27th to March 2nd, OnePlus will showcase ray tracing enabled Tower of Fantasy at Hall 3, 3M10 at MWC 2023.
