One of the specialties of the CAM
boards is the Margolus
neighborhood, often used for lattice gas simulations. However, with
adroit programming and using large pixels, these neighborhoods can be
exploited to program the evolution of a 
automaton. By such a
designation we mean an automaton with four states using 
Moore neighborhoods, for a radius of 
. The large pixels are not
such a disadvantage, given that the evolved state can be centered so
that it overlaps each of the four neighbors; the presentation is more
attractive than it would be if the new cell had to coincide with just
one of its ancestors.
