- Pixelworks (PXLW, Financial) partners with PerfDog, Tencent WeTest's tool, to advance mobile gaming performance testing.
- Introduction of Frame Generation index redefines industry standards for evaluating game performance metrics.
- Collaboration leverages AI to provide real-time testing data and optimize mobile game performance.
Pixelworks, Inc. (NASDAQ: PXLW), a leader in visual processing solutions, has announced a strategic collaboration with PerfDog, a performance testing tool from Tencent WeTest. This partnership introduces the innovative "Frame Generation" index, a comprehensive multi-dimensional framework aimed at evaluating gaming performance. The initiative marks the beginning of a new era in mobile game testing standards as it integrates into the latest PerfDog version 11.1.
This cutting-edge Frame Generation index tackles the technical challenges traditionally associated with assessing game performance, particularly those with rendering acceleration. By enabling real-time visualization of post-acceleration frame rate data through Pixelworks' rendering solutions, developers and OEMs can now more accurately identify rendering bottlenecks. This development is a significant enhancement over conventional metrics such as average frame rate and stability, offering a more precise and complete optimization of mobile gaming performance.
For mobile game developers, these advancements in PerfDog 11.1 deliver richer testing data, allowing for streamlined performance optimization and the identification of critical rendering bottlenecks. The collaboration between Pixelworks and PerfDog not only establishes the first hardware-accelerated frame rate evaluation standard but also strengthens Pixelworks' positioning within the developer ecosystem, enhancing the value proposition of their hardware accelerators.
Wensheng Cao, founder of Tencent WeTest PerfDog, emphasized the importance of this collaboration in advancing testing technologies, stating that the partnership with Pixelworks combines technical excellence with AI innovation, setting new benchmarks for performance and paving the way for future technological expansions.
Jun Fang, Vice President of Pixelworks and General Manager of Mobile Business Unit, noted the expanded opportunities this cooperation opens up for gaming quality enhancements and deeper data utilization, thus propelling the industry-wide performance ecosystem forward.
This strategic move is expected to create a positive cycle of adoption, leading to optimized implementations of Pixelworks' rendering solutions and potentially increasing their market reach and adoption by smartphone manufacturers.
