devices website www.ziilabs.com legacy graphics card support www.3dlabs.com 3dlabs was a fabless semiconductor company that originally developed the glint and permedia high end graphics chip technology that was used on many of the world s leading computer graphics cards in the cad and dcc markets including its own wildcat and oxygen cards . in 2006 the company focused development efforts on its emerging media processing business and in 2009 rebranded as ziilabs . contents 1 history 2 media processors 3 legacy graphics cards 4 see also 5 references 6 external links history edit a permedia 2 with 8 mb sgram 3dlabs was formed from a management buy out of dupont pixel systems in the uk in april 1994 and went public on nasdaq in october 1996 . 3dlabs acquired dynamic pictures in july 1998 and the intense3d division of intergraph in july 2000 before being acquired by creative labs in june 2002 . in february 2006 3dlabs announced that it would stop developing professional 3d graphic chips and focus on embedded and mobile media processors . 3dlabs was an early pioneer in bringing 3d graphics to the pc . its glint 300sx graphics processor was the industry s first single chip 3d capable graphics device that was shipped on graphics boards from multiple vendors . gamma was the first single chip graphics geometry processor for the pc . permedia was the first low cost opengl accelerator chip . 3dlabs was a member of the opengl architecture review board and played an important role in the development of opengl 2.0 and ongoing evolution of the opengl api . the new media processor business was developed out of the original uk r & d center with most of the workstation graphics teams that came from intense3d and dynamic pictures having been hired by intel 1 and nvidia 2 . in november 2006 3dlabs introduced the dms 02 its first media processor capable of 720p hd video for portable devices . in january 2009 the soc team merged with a creative product division and rebranded as ziilabs to offer processors and complete market ready hardware and software platforms to consumer oems and odms . in november 2012 creative announced an agreement to sell the ziilabs subsidiary to intel . 3 media processors edit the zms processors are based on a low power multicore architecture including dual arm cores for handling traditional cpu tasks plus a closely coupled fully programmable simd array processor to do the heavy lifting for intensive media processing tasks such as ; 2d graphics 3d graphics video decode encode image processing and floating point 32 bit ieee . the processors integrate on chip peripherals and interfaces suitable for a broad range of handheld and embedded devices . originally developed under the 3dlabs name the processor related products are now sold and supported by ziilabs . legacy graphics cards edit oxygen 402 firegl 1000 these are the legacy cards supplied by 3dlabs . drivers and limited support for these products can be
