About Imagination Technologies IP
The META multi-threaded processor architecture, from Imagination's Metagence division, provides multiple real-time programming contexts that can operate independently and concurrently. This allows systems that would otherwise require multiple dedicated processors to be implemented on one device. The Ensigma UCC is a flexible and programmable communication processing unit designed for use in high performance devices. PowerVR's scalable technology covers a broad range of consumer graphics and visual applications ranging from embedded systems to location based entertainment. Imagination Technologies' META, UCC and PowerVR IP technologies are complementary and together offer the most comprehensive SoC-ready IP range for modern applications.
