Quote:Few people know that the Raspberry Pi SoC has an integrated hardware DSP (since the original model), but the APIs are not public and I don't think it has ever been used. The question was: Does Moode use this hardware DSP or does it only work in software?
Seems to me the question answers itself. No public API === No open-source implementation. This isn't like a communications protocol which can be packet sniffed and subsequently reverse-engineered.
AFAICT, the question of the availability of the SoC-level DSP was first asked on the Raspberry Pi Forum back in 2012 and the answer from the RPF was "we're working on it." The question was asked again in 2013, 2014, 2015, and 2016 with similar or no response.
