JAGUAR family of Android 3.X tablet reference
platforms from ZiiLABS
ZiiLABS has introduced its JAGUAR family of Android tablet
reference platforms. The modular 7" and 10" tablets
are designed for the latest Android 3.X compliance and supports
ZiiLABS latest ZMS-20 and ZMS-40 StemCell Processors.
JAGUAR platforms supports 1080p high profile video playback,
immersive OpenGL ES 2.0 3D graphics, HD video calling and
desktop browsing experience including Adobe Flash Player.
Based on a motherboard concept, the JAGUAR allows an OEM
or ODM to bring to market their own Android 3.X tablets
in the shortest possible time, claims ZiiLABS.
ZiiLABS is to display JAGUAR reference tablets based on
the ZMS-20 at the Computex 2011 tradeshow in Taipei, Taiwan
between 31 May and 4 June. The ZMS-20 features 48 StemCell
media processing cores and dual 1.5GHz ARM Cortex-A9 MPCores.
"As consumer demand for a wide-range of smarter, more
connected tablets increases, so do the OEMs' needs to innovate
while also shrinking their time-to-market" said Hock
Leow, president of ZiiLABS. "The JAGUAR platform combines
our deep understanding and experience working on consumer
devices and tablets with our ZMS processors, reference platforms,
software and certification know-how to deliver a state-of-the-art
platform that minimizes the complexities of introducing
next-generation tablets."
"Timing is everything and a frenzied land-grab is
taking place in the tablet computing market," said
Sim Wong Hoo, Chairman and CEO of Creative Technology. "Android
3.X and ZMS-20 are designed and engineered specifically
for this new and exciting tablet market where growth is
expected to approach 100 million next year. The JAGUAR platforms
based on ZiiLABS' ZMS-20 and ZMS-40 processors push performances
to a new level that the world has never seen before and
OEMs and ODMs can leverage this with JAGUAR to quickly stake
a sizeable claim in this explosive market."
ZiiLABS says existing JAGUAR based tablet designs will
be able to take advantage of 6 GHz of quad-core computing
by migrating to the compatible quad ARM-Cortex-A9 based
ZMS-40.
