Zii Plaszma™ Platform — The Cornerstone of StemCell Computing™

The Zii Plaszma Platform provides developers, system integrators, OEMs and ODMs with the essential building blocks to rapidly and efficiently create compelling media-rich devices and applications and bring them to market under their own brand. The Zii Plaszma Platform comprises: the Zii EGG StemCell Computer, ZMS-05 System Module, ZMS-05 Media Rich Applications Processor, Plaszma OS and Plaszma SDK.

The Zii Plaszma Platform supports Android and the Android SDK, giving developers the chance to use the familiar Android OS. The difference, however, is the marked improvement in High-definition and 3D Graphics performance.

Exciting Development Possibilities — Zii EGG Feature Highlights²

The feature-rich, open standard Zii EGG offers developers exciting possibilities to develop compelling customized applications.

 

1080p HD Output

Zii EGG is the first handheld device that can support High-definition output of up to 1080p to HDTV. Instantly implement applications like wireless network-aware digital signboards.

Media-Rich Applications Processor

The revolutionary chip delivers a superior experience of media-rich applications on a mobile device. It's the perfect processing solution for scalability, flexibility and low-energy consumption.

OpenGL ES

The powerful 3D OpenGL ES capabilities of the underlying ZMS-05 processor enable developers to create compelling 3D games and applications that take full advantage of the 42 million textured pixels/sec fill rate.
 

10-point Multi-Gesture Touch Screen

The Zii EGG features a 10-point multi-gesture touch screen that allows developers to offer a customized device with a compelling widget-based user interface. This enables developers to create applications such as a virtual piano where you can actually play chords with onscreen keys. Users can even enjoy customized gesture commands.

SDHC Card Slot

The High Capacity SD (SDHC) card slot provides the removable external storage capacity of up to 32GB which can hold up to 100 digital movies, or 30 DVD-quality movies, or 10 HD movies. Combined with the internal memory capacity of up to 32GB, the Zii EGG can become a 64GB³ battery-powered handheld media hub that can hold up to 200 movies, or 5,000 karaoke/MTV videos.

This flexible combination of external and internal flash storage capacity allows VARs (value-added-resellers) and OEMs to customize and cost-optimize their Zii end product to a variety of storage capacities, namely 0GB, 1GB, 2GB, 3GB, 4GB, 5GB, 6GB, 8GB, 9GB, 10GB, 12GB, 16GB, 17GB, 18GB, 20GB, 24GB, 32GB, 33GB, 34GB, 36GB, 40GB, 48GB and 64GB.

Hardware GPS Receiver

The Zii EGG has a dedicated hardware GPS (Global Positioning System) chip that allows it to receive signals directly from satellites anywhere in the world. The Zii EGG's hardware GPS receiver lets developers create advanced location-based applications and enhanced 3D Navigation systems. Improved location accuracy, coverage, and responsiveness are benefits that only hardware GPS can deliver.

HD and VGA Dual Cameras

The forward facing VGA camera and rear facing HD camera enable developers to easily modify the Zii EGG into a pocket-sized High-definition photo, movie-recording and video conferencing device.

Market Ready

Text-to-Speech Feature

Text-to-speech with a HD camera on a handheld Zii EGG device opens up an exciting new field of application possibilities for developers. Coupled with OCR technologies, this unique feature can capture and read back of text, catering to people with special needs. Educational applications such as audio eBooks become viable.
