GPU-less instrument cluster system with full asset sweep

Abstract:

A method for implementing a full sweep in a digital instrument cluster system without a graphical processing unit (GPU) is disclosed. The method includes displaying a static asset as background for displaying of dynamic assets that point to different position values on the static asset, sequentially retrieving each of a plurality of subsets of dynamic assets such that each subset provides position indicators with a different level of position granularity, wherein an order of retrieving each subset moves from a lowest granularity subset to a highest granularity subset until all of the plurality of subsets of dynamic assets have been retrieved, and performing a full sweep, prior to retrieving of the dynamic assets, by sequentially displaying the dynamic assets from a minimum position to a maximum position of the static asset, and back, the sequentially displaying being based on a highest available granularity of dynamic assets that have been retrieved.
