"The future is here" with MR, and it is further enhanced by computing in memory structure


Vision Pro MR headset, unveiled at the highly anticipated 2023 WWDC, represents the future of MR technology with its groundbreaking features. The headset incorporates a state-of-the-art chip architecture that combines storage and computation, known as the "computing in memory structure”.



MR, which stands for Mixed Reality, goes beyond Virtual Reality (VR) by seamlessly blending virtual content with the real world. Vision Pro, Apple's first spatial computing device, aims to seamlessly integrate digital content into the user's real-world experience, enabling them to stay present and connected.



Unlike traditional VR headsets, Vision Pro does not rely on handheld controllers. Instead, it offers a hands-free experience through voice commands, eye tracking, and gestures. Users can browse application icons by gazing at them, make selections with gentle taps, scroll by swiping, or issue voice commands.



The multifunctional capabilities of Vision Pro place specific demands on the chip architecture. The following requirements need to be met:

· High-performance computing: The chip needs to handle a considerable amount of real-time computing tasks, such as position tracking, environment perception, and pose recognition. Therefore, the chip must possess robust computational capabilities to efficiently execute complex algorithms and real-time data processing, ensuring smooth and responsive performance.

· Graphics processing power: Vision Pro requires rendering and displaying high-quality virtual content, seamlessly blending it with the real world. Hence, the chip needs to deliver powerful graphics processing capabilities to render complex virtual scenes, objects, and effects in real-time, with low latency, ensuring a high-quality visual experience for the user.

· Low power consumption and high energy efficiency: MR headsets are expected to have extended usage times, and users prioritize lightweight devices with long battery life. Therefore, the chip must be designed with low power consumption and high energy efficiency, prolonging battery life, minimizing heat generation, and optimizing overall usage duration.

· Low latency and high frame rates: MR experiences heavily rely on real-time responsiveness. The chip needs to capture user movements and poses with minimal latency, allowing for quick and accurate response to user commands and interactions. Additionally, the headset requires high frame rates for smooth and stable rendering of virtual content, preventing motion sickness or discomfort for the user.

· Data processing and transmission capabilities: MR headsets process large amounts of sensor data, including camera images, depth maps, and positional data, to fuse them with virtual content. The chip needs to handle efficient data processing and transmission, swiftly processing and transmitting substantial amounts of data to ensure real-time accuracy and reliability.



The WTM2101 chip architecture, with its integrated storage-compute design, addresses these requirements. Unlike traditional von Neumann architectures, where storage and computation are separate entities, the storage-compute integrated design minimizes data movement, reducing power consumption. It leverages matrix multiplication and addition operations within neural networks to achieve significant improvements in computational energy efficiency. The AI computing efficiency is boosted by 100 times, with power consumption ranging from 5uA to 3mA.



Furthermore, the chip incorporates intelligent voice algorithms, enabling advanced voice recognition, support for command phrases, AI-powered noise reduction, and low-latency echo cancellation within 10ms. The WTM-8 series, equipped with visual algorithms, delivers 4K resolution at 60fps and implements frame interpolation for smoother gaming experiences. Even in low light conditions, it achieves perfect detail reproduction, providing a visual experience that matches human perception.



In summary, the Vision Pro MR headset places specific demands on the chip architecture, necessitating high-performance computing, powerful graphics processing, low power consumption, low latency, and efficient data processing and transmission capabilities. The integration of storage and computation in the chip design, such as the WTM2101, ensures enhanced computational efficiency.
