BARCELONA, Spain, Feb. 26, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- OMAP™ processors
from Texas Instruments Incorporated (TI) (NASDAQ: TXN) are moving
beyond mobile devices to deliver incomparable processing power and
performance to new markets. At Mobile World Congress (MWC) 2012
this week in Barcelona, TI is
showcasing innovative experiences driven by OMAP processors,
including the smart digital home, enterprise mobility, cloud
computing, augmented reality, natural user interfaces (NUIs),
radical visual imaging and gaming on mobile devices and more.
"Visitors to the TI booth can immerse themselves in OMAP
processor-driven experiences coming to all aspects of their lives –
mobile, home, enterprise and beyond," said Fred Cohen, director, OMAP Ecosystem, TI. "From
stunning OMAP 5 processor demonstrations and lifestyle-changing
augmented reality to the digital home experience and radically
visual imaging, TI's OMAP processors deliver the power and
performance required for the next decade of applications and
experiences."
TI's OMAP processor-based demonstrations in Hall 8, stand 8A84
include:
OMAP 5 platform: Mobile and beyond
OMAP 5 platform-empowered devices go beyond the traditional
definition of "mobile" to power multiple screens and enable
unprecedented multitasking. Discover multiple experiences with low
latency wireless display UI cloning mode (leveraging Screenovate
technology): watch full HD video, play rich and immersive games,
take high resolution pictures with Zero shutter lag, and
browse applications or the Web seamlessly, either directly on the
device, or on a 1080p TV.
Digital home experience
Mobile devices will become the ultimate remote control for your
home. See how OMAP processors allow you to stream full HD video,
audio and games on a TV, and control you lighting systems and more
from the comfort of the sofa – all without giving up the ability to
use your device for other applications. The digital home room
includes OMAP platform demonstrations using technology from Always
Innovating, Fanhattan, Teknision and Screenovate.
Lifestyle-changing augmented reality
Augmented reality applications make life easier and more engaging
by adding interactivity to formerly flat media. Experience
augmented reality applications, driven by OMAP processors and using
software from Metaio and Total Immersion, on end-products like
eyeglasses and helmets, or TV and furniture, to get a realistic
preview of how you or your home will look outfitted with new
accessories.
Immersive interactions
With applications like touchless gesturing and mobile TV, the
mobile lifestyle is more interactive and available anytime,
anywhere. See how OMAP processors allow you to browse a cookbook
and follow recipes without dirtying your screen, with Extreme
Reality (XTR) and Stonetrip technologies. Securely stream your
favorite live TV programs through the MobiTV mosaic UI right to
your tablet screen, with OMAP security capabilities leveraging
Trusted Logic solution, and enjoy surrounding audio effects from
SRS Labs and TI Spatial audio.
Radically visual imaging
Mobile devices' photo and video capabilities are so much more than
point-and-click when they're powered by OMAP processors. Experience
the latest applications that, when paired with OMAP platform
imaging technology and third party support from ArcSoft, Dolby,
Morpho, Inc. and Scalado, make taking the perfect shots effortless
and easily add fun special effects.
Visually stunning mobile games
Graphics- and feature-rich games have super fluidity and smooth
responsiveness that only OMAP4470 and OMAP 5 processors can
provide. Challenge yourself on cool, graphically impressive games
from top names, such as Ubisoft, while discovering new ways to
control games via zRRo's Touch TV, which leverages multi-touch
proximity sensing technology.
Mobile computing convergence
Today's mobile devices truly make it possible to work anywhere,
whether you're accessing your desktop on the go, or conferencing
and collaborating with colleagues across time zones. See how OMAP
processors are powering the new world of work with third party
companies Ittiam, Splashtop and Teradici.
LTE revolution
TI's pre-integrated platform with Renesas and STEricsson LTE modems
coupled with the OMAP platform's signature IVA-HD acceleration
enables lightning-fast video streaming, uploading and
downloading.
