• Arm has announced Arm Accuracy Super Resolution (ASR), a new game upscaling solution for mobile devices.
• The company claims improved performance and reduced power consumption compared to running games at a native, high resolution.
• This would be a great feature on Google Pixel phones, which have historically suffered from heating and comparatively poor performance.

Super-resolution technology has become one of the most important features in PC and console gaming today. This tech upscales the resolution in video games, allowing for sharper, more detailed graphics while still offering great performance. Now, a huge mobile player has announced its own take on the tech.

Arm announced Arm Accuracy Super Resolution (Arm ASR) this week, and its an open-source resolution upscaling technology for mobile devices. The company says ASR is derived from AMDs open-source FSR2 upscaling tech used on PCs, the Steam Deck, and game consoles.
