Bolt Graphics is taking aim at NVIDIA, promising a future GPU solution built with RISC and effectively acting as a computer-on-card. Although initially targeted fewer applications (3D artists, game developers, animators) to minimize the 'surface area' of software optimization, Bolt hopes to bring its GPU to gaming sometime in the future. Bolt has a timeline for its first actual products within the next 1-2 years for initial users and testing and currently has functional pieces of code simulating its GPU on AMD Xilinx FPGA boards. We talk with Darwesh Singh, Founder & CEO, about Bolt's architecture, plans, and ambitions.
