For Graphics, The Computer Graphics (CG) Kit provides open capabilities centred around GPU technology to support game developers with a high-performance rendering framework and a series of rendering plug-ins to improve game screen rendering efficiency. The gaming app achieved close to 11% in both increases in average frame rate and reduction in average power consumption by integrating HMS Core’s Computer Graphics Kit.
In the AI area, ML Kit provides abundant text, speech, language, images, as well as face and body detection services to help developers build AI apps easily and efficiently.

In the meantime, Image Kit opens the capability of HUAWEI themes, provides animation effects, and a ready-made template, allowing developers to quickly produce creative content. Thousands of lines of code were required previously to achieve the effect, after integrated, only two or three lines of code are required, and easier to set simple parameters to achieve more brilliant creative effects.
Huawei provides global developers with a one-stop, highly efficient operation service through AppGallery Connect, which includes 68 services – an increase of 27 services since HDC 2019. The number of apps using AGC increased by 90%.
