The Myriad 1 family of vision accelerators was introduced in 2009 and have undergone a number of enhancements along the way, each released under a new model and building on its predecessors. The Myriad 1 family is largely based on the SABRE test chip they've developed the prior year. This family first came to the public spotlight when they became the workhorse chips behind Google's Project Tango. All the models have the same basic features:

• Nona-core processor
  • Eight SHAVE v2.0 cores
  • 1 SPARC LEON3 managing core
• 180 MHz
• TSMC's 65 nm process
• Up to 20 GFLOPS
• 1 MiB of shared memory (8x 128 KiB)

Models: (most of the differences are in the video capabilities of the chip)

• MA1100, advanced real-time video editing accelerator for smartphones
  • MA1101, Added Android-OS support to the MS1100
    • MA1102, Added high-quality image/audio effects, Dolby, DTS
• MA1110, added support fr 720p 30fps video recording and playback, real-time video editing, inline video, and 12-megapixel captures
• MA1133, video streams accelerator for auto-stereoscopic screens for smartphones
