CellGuide and ApusOne Team-Up to Bring to Market an Integrated Multimedia Android Based Location Platform

REHOVOT, Israel and SHANGHAI, January 4, 2011/PRNewswire/ --     CellGuide, a leading host based GNSS solution provider, and ApusOne, an
emerging leading provider of low power multimedia platform ICs, today
announce a cooperation to bring to market Android based location platform

Multimedia mobile processor.

    The combination of the multimedia MAP200 and the ACLYS GPS offers an
unbeatable price performance solution. Both IC's offer low power without
compromising high performance. The multimedia application processor is
targeted for use within mobile tablets, portable media players, and car
infotainment systems. It delivers HD 1080p quality video decoder, to mobile
devices without video format limitation. CellGuide's ACLYS augments this

by leveraging mobile processors and other wireless components inside the
mobile device to provide built-in multi beacon GPS functionality.

enable manufacturers to implement their next generation Mobile Android
devices at a competitive pricing for mass market adoption", said Dr. Zhao,
