# Graphics Subsystem — Overview
|
|
|
|
The Amiga graphics system is built on custom DMA-driven hardware (Agnus/Alice + Denise/Lisa) managed through `graphics.library`. It supports planar bitmaps, hardware sprites, a Copper display coprocessor, and a Blitter for fast 2D operations. Three chipset generations (OCS → ECS → AGA) expanded resolution, color depth, and bandwidth.
