name: aosp-ai-and-devices description: | AOSP Part XII — AI & Devices. Use when reasoning about on-device ML in AOSP, NNAPI, the AppFunctions framework for assistant integration, the Computer Control flow, CompanionDeviceManager, or virtual devices (virtual displays/inputs/cameras for cross-device experiences), or the NpuManager module for on-device neural accelerators (model-load admission control, the NDK ANpuBuffer surface, the android.hardware.npu HAL).

AOSP Part XII — AI & Devices

Newer cross-device and assistant-oriented surfaces: on-device ML wiring and the companion-device / virtual-device frameworks.

Chapters in this Part

• 51-ai-appfunctions.md — on-device ML in AOSP, NNAPI, AppFunctions framework for assistant integration, Computer Control
• 52-companion-virtual-device.md — CompanionDeviceManager, virtual displays/inputs/cameras, cross-device experiences
• 53-npu-manager.md — the NpuManager mainline module for on-device neural accelerators: model-load admission control (budget/turn-taking policies, priorities), the Rust NDK ANpuBuffer/INpuAllocator, the android.hardware.npu HAL, and libwrapfd buffer protection
