Gaming News PS5 Pro: This Sony document confirms leaks regarding Sony’s new video game console
In the last few days, rumors about a possible “Pro” model of the PlayStation 5 have been increasing. Rumors that are likely to intensify with Sony’s latest patent.
PS5: A patent for the Pro model?
A new PlayStation 5 model for next year? This would be on Sony’s part with an alleged PlayStation 5 “PRO” in the pipeline. Last week, A ResetEra forum user revealed the technical details this new version. Compared to the classic version of the console, its stated goal would be to increase the graphics performance of the games. This would make it possible to offer 4K 30 FPS natively; the integration of ray tracing (the technology used to reproduce the physical behavior of light in games) or even artificial intelligence that allows upscaling: a technology that makes it possible to render, more or less
It must be emphasized that these are all just rumors. However, the media Gamerant reported that Sony posted (shortly after on the difficulty level) a new patent. The latter, without confirming the existence of the PlayStation 5 Pro, suggests a more powerful console.
A technology that proposes the use of artificial intelligence
In fact, there are several reasons to have confidence in the existence of a new model. The image above describes a specific method of launching a game from the console. To keep it simple, it appears that the system is taking some sort of patch into account when asking the GPU to create the images. This type of AAD patch would be exactly the work that artificial intelligence does to scale up
We repeat it here, but this information should be taken with caution and one must moderate one’s enthusiasm. Although patents may be authentic and official, this does not mean that they are reality. This is simply a protective measure by Sony to prevent the idea from being stolen by others: with this patent, the company proves that it came up with it before the others. But perhaps in the near future this technical approach will be obsolete for the manufacturer. Only time will tell, but it’s clear that this patent makes it even more interesting to pursue.
