_Optimized GLTiny Model Brings Rich 3D Graphics to Resource-Constrained Wearable
Devices Powered by OpenGL ES GPUs_

SHANGHAI, Oct. 29, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — VeriSilicon (688521.SH) announced GLTiny,
an innovative 3D Graphics Processing Unit (GPU) programming model designed for wearable
devices with stringent power and memory constraints. Featuring a streamlined Application
Programming Interface (API) and an ultra-lightweight driver, GLTiny enables developers
to leverage the 3D graphics capabilities of VeriSilicon’s Nano OpenGL ES GPU IP 
series for next-generation smartwatches, smart glasses, and other resource-constrained
wearable devices.

Based on VeriSilicon’s extensive experience in wearable graphics applications, GLTiny
incorporates configurable rendering functions that enable developers to easily define
their rendering requirements while efficiently utilizing the underlying OpenGL ES
GPU capabilities. This streamlined approach dramatically reduces driver memory footprint
and CPU overhead, delivering improved power efficiency and optimized performance
for resource-constrained wearable devices.

GLTiny provides native rendering support for standard glTF™ 3D models, allowing 
developers to directly import glTF content and render it through GLTiny APIs. It
supports key features such as lighting models, skeletal skinning, and morph targets,
as well as full glTF animation support, including flexible playback, switching between
animation clips, and playback speed control. GLTiny also supports visual effects
such as Gaussian blur and ripple effects, with simplified APIs designed to streamline
3D graphics development. In addition, GLTiny can be combined with VeriSilicon’s 
VGLite vector graphics driver to form an innovative hybrid driver, enabling coordinated
rendering of 2.5D vector graphics and 3D models within the same frame.

"Power consumption and memory footprint are two of the most critical considerations
in wearable devices, where delivering rich visual experiences within stringent resource
constraints is essential," said Weijin Dai, Chief Strategy Officer, Executive Vice
President and General Manager of the IP Division at VeriSilicon. "Leveraging our
extensive experience in wearable graphics and close collaboration with leading wearable
SoC and device manufacturers, we developed GLTiny to address these challenges. Building
on the success of VeriSilicon’s VGLite 2.5D GPU programming model, which has become
a de facto industry standard for lightweight 2.5D graphics, GLTiny represents another
important advancement in our graphics technology portfolio. Designed for seamless
integration with the established wearable graphics content development ecosystem,
GLTiny operates on VeriSilicon’s Nano OpenGL ES GPU IP series, enabling device manufacturers
to deliver increasingly sophisticated visual experiences while meeting the stringent
power and memory requirements of next-generation wearable devices."
