NMIT
Netherlands Maritime Institute of Technology (NMIT)
Our vision is to be a leading maritime institute offering education, training and consultancy services for Malaysia and the region. “Excellence with a Purpose” is the underlining philosophy of all the programmes offered to the individuals and the maritime industry.
EduCity@Iskandar will be a fully integrated knowledge-based hub comprising of world class universities, knowledge-based industry leaders, industry-centric R&D clusters, academia-industry action centre, international schools & colleges, living & recreational facilities and conference & exhibition amenities that are of world calibre. Instead of just one university with various faculties, EduCity@Iskandar will have various universities with one specialised faculty each.
The facilities on the NMIT campus will embrace the latest 21st century learning technologies e.g. computers, simulators, e-library, inter-library loan systems, multi-media learning facilities and etc. The social and spiritual needs of the diverse student population will be addressed via the co-curricular programs with the setting up of sports facilities, clubs and professional bodies organized and managed by the student themselves with the guidance of NMIT’s faculties. The campus will also be equipped with the appropriate student amenities such as cyber cafés, eateries and communication services. The incorporation of the above elements in planning the NMIT’s learning environment will definitely enrich the quality of the student education.

Xperia Z Ultra
Big screen. Big entertainment.
Xperia Z Ultra – 6.4” Full HD display in the world’s slimmest smartphone.
When only the best is good enough – Full HD TRILUMINOS Display with X-Reality for mobile
Xperia Z Ultra is the big screen phone that uses the very latest screen technology developed by our BRAVIA TV engineers. The large, high-resolution 6.4” Full TRILUMINOS™ Display with X-Reality for mobile comes with a 1920 x 1080 progressive scan, for incredibly crisp pictures free of jagged edges. Paired with a pixel density of 342 pixels per inch, you get pictures that are razor sharp and superiorly bright.

TRILUMINOS Display for Mobile
For astonishingly authentic colour
Xperia Z Ultra incorporates TRILUMINOS™ Display for mobile to present rich, authentic colours with subtle tones, while replicating bold colours including hard-to-reproduce reds, blues and greens. By integrating Sony’s own unique display innovation, this technique delivers a significantly wider colour gamut, carrying a far more natural and vivid viewing experience with a heightened sense of depth.
The TRILUMINOS display for mobile offers a wider range of colours to choose from, for more brilliant reds, blues and greens, when compared to a standard LCD display.
X-Reality for mobile
For clearer, more vivid pictures.
From low-resolution web videos to high-resolution movies − with Sony’s latest picture engine, exclusive X-Reality for mobile – everything you see on Xperia Z Ultra’s big screen is analysed and selectively processed to give clean, clear and lifelike pictures. Three unique noise reduction features work their magic prior to up scaling. While Sony’s intelligent display technology analyses each image to optimise pixels, texture, outline, colour, contrast and noise, creating the best viewing experience possible.
(1) Pixel reproduction:
Sony’s unique Super resolution technology analyses each pixel in an image and reproduces the ones that are lacking, giving you the sharpest images.
(2) Texture and outline improvement:
By selectively enhancing elements that help to render the texture and sharpen the outlines, images become clearer and crisper.
(3) Colour and contrast enhancement:
The Intelligent Image Enhancer reproduces the vividness of the image in its original colour. Pictures are selectively optimised by enhancing the contrast, making images look more detailed and true to life.
(4) Noise reduction:
Intelligent Noise Reduction decreases noise which can sometimes occur in high-motion scenes or footage shot in low-light conditions. As a result, images become clearer and smoother.
Gives you a better overview
Experience more. Xperia Z Ultra displays 60% more than a standard smartphone.-Display area available compared to smartphones with a 5” display or smaller.
You get 6 icons per row on your home screen, instead of the standard 4.
Less reflective, more responsive – OptiContrast™ & Direct Touch
We’ve eliminated a layer of air in the construction, bringing the touch panel closer to the display. This OptiContrast™ panel makes for less reflection and clearer viewing – even in bright sunlight, as well as creating a seamlessly black surface when the phone is turned off.
By eliminating the sensor layer and integrating the sensor on the lens, we’ve managed to increase the responsiveness of the screen. So your touch is more effective and the experience on your Android smartphone is more intuitive.

Design and Durability
The Design
Attention to every detail
Created in collaboration with Sony consumer electronic experts, Xperia Z Ultra does an excellent job of merging design with technology, creating a big screen phone with symmetry and balance in all directions. Quality craftsmanship and attention to every little detail means we’ve only selected premium materials that are nothing less than beautiful. Both the front and back are made of glass, with a seamless, refection-coated surface. The result? An Android smartphone that mirrors the world around you, while letting you get so immersed in the content that the hardware virtually disappears.
Ultra slim and ultra-light
How can a 6.4” big screen phone manage to be this slim and light? We’ve eliminated a layer of air and brought the display closer to the lens, for added touch sensitivity and a smaller size. We then paired this with a new component layout and a skeleton frame. The outcome is an Android smartphone that allows for a slimness of 6.5 mm and a weight of no more than 212 grams, making Xperia Z Ultra extremely portable and easy to hold in one hand.

The Durability
Ultra tough
To make sure that this big screen phone can handle whatever life has in store, we designed it to be super durable. The high IP55 & IP58 rating means its waterproof* and dust resistant, so feel free to use it in the rain and bring it to the pool. Both the front and back panels are made with durable tempered glass, coated with an anti-scratch film. And the skeleton frame is made of tough glass fibre polyamide. It has superior mechanical strength, and is so strong that it’s often used as a metal substitute in cars and electronics.
Quick Benefit
Waterproof up to 1.5 meter
In compliance with IP55 and IP58, Xperia Z Ultra is protected against the ingress of dust and is waterproof. Provided that all ports and covers are firmly closed, the phone is:
-protected against low pressure jets of water from all practicable directions in compliance with IP 55 and/or;
-Can be kept under 1.50 metres of freshwater for up to 30 minutes in compliance with IP58.
-Test result:

Productivity
Pen input from anywhere
With its highly responsive screen that’s compatible with a pencil or stylus, this big screen phone lets you take notes using Notebook or Sketchbook. In fact, you can even take notes from a locked screen and during calls. And the high accuracy and low latency offers exact precision, for a truly authentic pen- and paper feel.
Transform your handwritten notes
Xperia Z Ultra comes with handwriting recognition, meaning that your handwritten notes get optically scanned and converted into text. As a result, you can easily insert your notes into whatever field you’re editing.
Save time through multi-tasking apps
The multi-tasking apps also help you improve productivity, so that you don’t have to lose any valuable time going between windows.
Keep one hand free
Prefer typing? The design of this Android smartphone paired with the easy-toggle keyboard that has both right- and left handed support makes it ideal for one-handed input.
Camera
Stunning shots in any light — 8 MP camera with Exmor RS™ for mobile
The 8 megapixel camera is built with the same modules as leading Sony cameras. Exmor RS™ for mobile is an evolution of our Sony image sensor technology, with a next-generation BSI light sensor. By adopting the technology of luminance and colour noise reduction, we’ve created a camera that snaps highly detailed shots with low noise – even in challenging lighting conditions. You’re now also able to reproduce objects in more vivid colours and capture night images and faces in stunning clarity.
Optimised imagery with HDR for photos and video
HDR for photos and videos captures natural colours in any light. HDR (High Dynamic Range) is an imaging technology used to capture clear photos against strong backlight. With HDR, the camera captures the same image at different exposure levels and layers them to create one optimised photo. And Sony HDR for video lets you film in high contrast situations, like in front of a window or with the sun behind your subject.
Always the right setting – Superior Auto
Now it’s always easy to get a great shot. With Superior Auto, you don’t have to know the ins and outs of camera settings to make use of them. In Superior Auto mode, the camera combines Scene Recognition with high quality and high performance image processing technology (HDR and noise reduction) to automatically shoot with the optimal settings. And your Android smartphone device is automatically optimised for 36 different scenes, so you always get the best shot.
Connectivity
One-touch functions from Sony
Sharing with friends and connecting your world has never been easier. Based on NFC (near field communication), our one-touch functions connect one device to another in a single tap. No wires, cables, or fiddling with settings necessary.
