2Android RenderScriptIntrinsic Sample
3===================================
4
5RenderScriptIntrinsic sample that demonstrates how to use RenderScript intrinsics.
6Creates several RenderScript intrinsics and shows a filtering result with various parameters.
7Also shows how to extends RedioButton with StateListDrawable.

9Introduction
10------------
11
12[RenderScript][1] is a framework for running computationally intensive tasks at high performance on Android. RenderScript is
13primarily oriented for use with data-parallel computation, although serial computationally intensive workloads can
14benefit as well.
15
16RenderScript **intrinsics** are built-in functions that perform well-defined operations often seen
17in image processing. Intrinsics provide extremely high-performance implementations of standard
18functions with a minimal amount of code.
19
20This sample shows how to access and use the blur, convolve, and matrix intrinsics:
21
22```java
23mScriptBlur = ScriptIntrinsicBlur.create(mRS, Element.U8_4(mRS));
24mScriptConvolve = ScriptIntrinsicConvolve5x5.create(mRS,
25 Element.U8_4(mRS));
26mScriptMatrix = ScriptIntrinsicColorMatrix.create(mRS,
27 Element.U8_4(mRS));
28```
29
30RenderScript intrinsics will usually be the fastest possible way for a developer to perform these operations. The
31Android team works closely with our partners to ensure that the intrinsics perform as fast as possible on their
32architectures — often far beyond anything that can be achieved in a general-purpose language.
