Abstract
One or more techniques and/or systems are provided for operating a graphics processing unit (GPU). A sensor of a computing device may collect sensor input data (e.g., camera input, touch input, video input, etc.), which may be provided to the GPU. An input process within the GPU may be invoked to process the sensor input data to generate a result that may be retained within GPU accessible memory (e.g., a touch sensor process may generate a gesture result based upon touch input from a touch panel of the computing device). An output process within the GPU may be invoked to utilize the result within the GPU accessible memory, for display rendering. In this way, latency between user input and display rendering may be mitigated by streamlining processing on the GPU by mitigating transmission of data between the GPU and a CPU of the computing device for display rendering.
