Abstract: Examples described herein relate to a graphics processing apparatus that includes a memory device; and a central processing unit (CPU). In some examples, the CPU is configured to: execute a producer to issue graphics command application program interfaces (APIs); execute a driver to translate graphics command APIs into executable instructions; and based on an idle state of the producer, execute a command translation code segment of the producer to translate graphics command APIs into executable instructions. In some examples, the execution unit is coupled to the memory device, the execution unit to execute one or more of the executable instructions. In some examples, the producer includes multiple portions such as application code, graphics pipeline runtime code, and command translation code segment.

Abstract: A grappling dummy apparatus includes a rigid frame sized and shaped to resemble a human body having a head, torso, arms, and legs. A brace piece is connected to the rigid frame and extends from a rear portion of the rigid frame. At least one spring is connected to two adjacent portions of the rigid frame. The portions of the rigid frame connected by the at least one spring are biasably movable.
