With mobile devices becoming ever more powerful
and complex, ATI and Nokia are working to
drive the complexity out of multimedia development
by promoting open standards and providing
integrated hardware, software and tools.
In this way, developers need only create
content once for consumers to enjoy on a
range of devices. Specifically, ATI aims
to provide a dedicated tools chain and software
development kit (SDK) for developers in
the fall of 2006. ATI and Nokia will also
hold a series of joint workshops in the
second half of this year to showcase the
environment to key developers, states an
official release.
"Our
role is to enable all content, from ultra-high
quality music playback to 3D gaming, and
we'll jointly guide and support the members
of the content development community as
they focus on creating amazing user experiences.
With a shared vision of how multimedia impacts
the mobile market, Nokia and ATI are providing
much needed direction and a framework to
move the whole industry forward," said
ATI vice president and general manager handheld
products Paul Dal Santo.
