SpursEngine™ Introduction
The SpursEngine is a highly efficient stream processor. The SpursEngine incorporates 4 SPEs, which are the high-performance signal processing processors of Cell Broadband Engine (abbreviated as "Cell/B.E." from now on), and hardware video codecs such as MPEG2/H.264. Therefore you can quickly handle operations (for example: compression/decompression of video images, physics operations, or computer-graphics) that can not be executed satisfactorily by a single processor. By using the SpursEngine, you can accelerate the processing of these operations that video applications need.
