(project author here) That is pretty close to the approach this project has taken, although my motivation was not so much avoiding IP as exploring the line between hardware acceleration and software.

allo jeff nice to see you're around :) thank you so much for the time you spend guiding me through nyuzi. also for explaining the value of the metric "pixels / clock" as a measure for iteratively being able to focus on the highest bang-per-buck areas to make incremental improvements, progressing from full-software to high-performance 3D.

have you seen Tom Forsyth's fascinating and funny talk about how Larrabee turned into AVX512 after 15 years?

Great to hear! I've poked around a little and see that, and in any case wish you success and that we can all learn from it.
