 3DLABS Semiconductor previews 3D navigation at Telematics Update Detroit London, 14th May 2007: 3DLABS Semiconductor, a fabless semiconductor company, today released a video preview of the accelerated 3D navigation capabilities it will be showcasing at the forthcoming Telematics Update event in Detroit, 22-23rd May 2007, Stand 68. The preview highlights the DMS-02 processor’s unique ability to render life-like 3D visuals on a low power portable device. Recent user research shows that 3D visuals are much preferred to 2D display offerings when experiencing navigation and city guides. The video can be downloaded from: http://www.3dlabs.com/showcase/3dnav.asp Key features
“The preview highlights the performance and flexibility of the DMS-02 processor to render complex 3D scenes using our OpenGL ES 1.1 based map rendering tools. These tools complement our standard video, audio and imaging libraries and make it easy for manufacturers to deploy differentiated, next-generation PND/PMP products.” said Tim Lewis, director marketing, 3DLABS Semiconductor.
