Will enable graphical rendering of 2D objects and scaling for different display resolutions and zoom factors.
Samsung has licensed ARM Mali-SVG-t software for use in what it says will be a wide range of mobile handsets.
To recap, SVG is a royalty-free, vendor-neutral, open standard developed by the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C) for describing two-dimensional graphics and graphical applications in XML.
SVG-t is a version of the standard suitable for mobile phones. Mali-SVG-t software implements the SVG-t standard by providing a middleware layer compliant with the SVG-t 1.2 specification that is optimised for ARM processors
It's also able to take advantage of OpenVG compliant graphics acceleration technology, such as the ARM Mali family of graphics processing units (GPUs).
Samsung hasn't divulged which handsets will support the technology or when they will be available.
