How I can get Hardware Information in Android app

I want to get information about a device such as RAM (mem size), GPU (model, mem size), CPU (model, count of cores) programmatically in android app(kotlin). I found some similar posts (for example that), but there is no solution there. Help me please

            **FOR RAM**     
            private val activityManager: ActivityManager

You can use this -

Log.i("TAG", "SERIAL: " + Build.SERIAL);
Log.i("TAG","MODEL: " + Build.MODEL);
Log.i("TAG","ID: " + Build.ID);
Log.i("TAG","Manufacture: " + Build.MANUFACTURER);
Log.i("TAG","brand: " + Build.BRAND);
Log.i("TAG","type: " + Build.TYPE);
Log.i("TAG","user: " + Build.USER);
Log.i("TAG","BASE: " + Build.VERSION_CODES.BASE);
Log.i("TAG","INCREMENTAL " + Build.VERSION.INCREMENTAL);
Log.i("TAG","SDK  " + Build.VERSION.SDK);
Log.i("TAG","BOARD: " + Build.BOARD);
Log.i("TAG","BRAND " + Build.BRAND);
Log.i("TAG","HOST " + Build.HOST);
Log.i("TAG","FINGERPRINT: "+Build.FINGERPRINT);
Log.i("TAG","Version Code: " + Build.VERSION.RELEASE);

I've been looking around android files and what they contain and found a way to get cpu name and available ram memory size, but did not found any way to get to the gpu name

    fun fetchCpuName(): String {
        return File("/proc/cpuinfo").readLines().last() // Cpu name
    }
    

    fun fetchRamInfo(): String {
        return File("/proc/meminfo").readLines().first() // MemTotal
    }

This probably won't help much, but still might help someone in the future

Some of this information is available via the android.os.Build class.
