You can also create a standalone compute RenderScript that does not 22 draw anything to the screen such as bitmap image processing for a photo editor application. 23 The RenderScript compute APIs are mainly defined in the <code>rs_cl.rsh</code> header</p> 24 25 <p>Compute RenderScripts are simpler to setup and implement as there is no graphics rendering involved. 26 You can offload computational aspects of your application to RenderScript by creating a native RenderScript 27 file (.rs) and using the generated reflected layer class to call functions in the <code>.rs</code> file. 28 29 <p>See the <a href="{@docRoot}resources/samples/RenderScript/HelloCompute/index.html">HelloCompute</a> 30 sample in the Android SDK for more 31 information on how to create a simple compute RenderScript.</p> 32 <p> 33 See the <a href="{@docRoot}resources/samples/RenderScript/Balls/index.html">Balls</a> 34 sample in the Android SDK for more 35 information on how to create a compute RenderScript that is used in a graphics RenderScript. 36 The compute RenderScript is contained in 37 <a href="{@docRoot}resources/samples/RenderScript/Balls/src/com/example/android/rs/balls/ball_physics.html">balls_physics.rs</a>. 38 </p>
