Intel Edison: developer makes PC the size of a postage run game Doom
In last Wednesday (7), Intel took its place in the 2015 CES stage to talk about the main news of the company in the technology world. During his conference, the company announced the Curie, a computer the size of a button, the trendy Edison successor - displayed at CES last year. However, the public did not forget so easily the little Edison and to show the versatility of the CPU, a German developer did what anyone would do: hardware used to run the classic Doom.
The computer the size of a postage stamp went on sale officially in September 2014, offering users an Atom dual core 500 MHz processor, 1 GB of RAM and 4 GB of flash storage. The settings are enough to run newer games that classic of id Software, but the challenge is to make it all work in a tremendous gambiarra, spending just a few bucks.
Lutz Latta wanted to test the Intel device could stand in fact all the necessary peripherals to play decently in the game: a small LCD display to appreciate the shooting in first person, one speaker to recognize the grunt of the monsters away and of course , a beautiful control to get around the dark phases of the game.
