This sample demonstrates use of the Adaptive performance APIs.

Using these APIs, a game can:

• Monitor the device's thermal throttling status and [dynamically change its workload in response
• Give the OS performance hints about critical thead workloads to permit scheduling optimization

The sample:

• Displays the device's thermal status using the Thermal API.
• Reduces the target framerate when the device thermal state changes
• Provides performance hints about the sample's primary thread work

Before building in Android Studio (2022.3 or higher) the following prerequisites must be performed:

• Minimum API level of 30 (Android R) and a supported device (such as Pixel 4~)

• Minimum API level of 31 (Android S) and a supported device (such as Pixel 6~)

This sample is set to a minApi of 24 to demonstrate how to conditionally check for NDK API availability using __builtin_available in the C++ code and ANDROID_UNAVAILABLE_SYMBOLS_ARE_WEAK as a compiler preprocessor define. This functionality was added in NDK 26. Running the sample on an earlier version of Android will work, but will be missing the thermal and performance hint functionality.

1. Open a terminal and set the working directory to agdk/third_party/
2. git clone https://github.com/ocornut/imgui
3. git clone https://github.com/epezent/implot
4. git clone https://github.com/bulletphysics/bullet3

Once the prerequisites are complete, open the folder in Android Studio 2021.2 or higher. You can then build and run the samples from Android Studio.
