X9 smart cockpit chip taped out

Nanjing-based SemiDrive has signed up to use Imagination’s PowerVR Series9XM GPU which has been taped out and is ready to go.

Ready for 5G

Imagination Technologies announced its PowerVR Ray Tracing technology for licensing, enabling state-of-the-art realistic image rendering using light-modelling techniques to be integrated into graphics processing units (GPUs) across mobile, automotive, server and other markets.

Fudzilla told you 2 years ago

Apple A11 is a six core ARM based SoC that now has Apple graphics inside. Apple claims that it is 30 percent faster than the previous PowerVR GPU in the iPhone 7. Fudzilla exclusively reported about this almost two years ago, and we were right.

New GPU architecture

Imagination Technologies has lifted the kimono on its next-generation PowerVR Furian architecture, which it is billing as an entirely new GPU architecture designed for the evolved graphics and compute needs of next-generation consumer devices.

High performance low cost GPUs

Imagination has been showing off its new generation of PowerVR graphics chips.The chips are targeted at high-performance, low-power, and low-cost consumer devices and stick GPUs into low-cost portable devices and 4K televisions.

Another Apple partner suffering 

Imagination Technologies has fired its CEO as it heads for its second year of losses.

Things got delayed for two years 

A year ago Fudzilla revealed that Samsung has been building a mobile GPU. We are still as puzzled about it now as we were then,  but there are more confirmations that they should finish it in the 2017 – 2018 timeframe.

28nm MT8173 is a big.LITTLE quad

MediaTek is definitely Qualcomm's number one competitor in the smartphone space, and the company has just announced rather interesting product for tablets as well. 

If only there were any Android consoles…

The new Imagination Technologies PowerVR GT7900 GPU is designed for Android consoles, but could it end up somewhere else instead?
