Zeasn, a provider of smart home solutions and services, has released a brand new smart TV solution Whale OS Turnkey 2.0. Built on Zeasn’s Whale OS, the new turnkey solution offers customised UI and also brings the native app experience to TV viewers, including Netflix, YouTube, Prime Video, and Globoplay, among others. At present, Whale OS Turnkey 2.0 has provided turnkey services for Linux-based smart TVs on Novatek chipsets.
Whale OS is an operating system with independent intellectual property rights that supports various smart home devices. As the core of Whale Ecosystem and the independent third-party OS, Whale OS has in-depth cooperation with top chip design companies to solve the problems of codec performance and security from the bottom of the system, creating flexibility, scalability, and a fully customisable turnkey solution. Moreover, Whale OS has also completed all the integration work with the world’s top streaming apps such as Netflix, YouTube, Prime Video, allowing OEMs to achieve rapid mass production.
In product design, Whale OS has always been user-centric. It supports hybrid TV technology and global TV broadcast standards to meet worldwide user needs, and also integrates a state-of-the-art Electronic Programming Guide (EPG). It not only integrates a full catalogue of must-have global and regional streaming apps, but also has a built-in intelligent voice service: Whale AI Voice (with certified Amazon Alexa Skills – Whale Video), which supports One-click voice search for videos, movies, music, apps or weather forecast. Meanwhile, through the content recommendation engine based on the analysis of data, viewers will be able to find their favourite content anytime.
Commenting on the new launch, Raymond Chung, Chief Technology Officer of Zeasn, said: “We are very proud to launch Whale OS Turnkey 2.0 that supports UI customisation. In 2020, our Turnkey 1.0 solution successfully achieved mass production through cooperation with two of the world’s top smart TV manufacturers, TCL MOKA and TPV. Whale OS Turnkey 2.0 based on Novatek chipsets will provide more TV manufacturers and brand customers with perfect solutions to meet their needs, so they can truly differentiate their offerings in the market.
