MIPS partnership strengthened for robotics applications
The long-term partnership between Imagination Technologies and Actions Semiconductor around the MIPS architecture is to be strengthened. Actions, one of China’s leading fabless semiconductor companies that provides comprehensive portable multimedia and mobile internet System on a Chip (SoC) solutions for portable consumer electronics, recently renewed its license for a range of MIPS CPUs from entry-level to high-performance.
With these IP cores, Actions is creating SoCs targeting smart living room, WiFi/Bluetooth audio, multimedia audio and video products.
Actions recently introduced the MIPS-based V100 high-performance chipset for personal 3D cinema headsets which allows users to enjoy a high definition 3D big screen experience at anytime from anywhere. In addition, Actions’ MIPS-based, highly integrated, high-performance, low-power ATS3603 SoC is being used in a robot, which is entering mass production this month.
Jim Nicholas, EVP MIPS Processor IP, Imagination said: “Actions has long been an important partner of Imagination, working closely with us around products incorporating MIPS CPUs and PowerVR GPUs. With its world-class IC design capability and focus on innovation, Actions is taking these products into emerging segments such as VR and robotics. We look forward to working closely with Actions as it brings new generations of differentiated SoCs to market.”
