re: TI DSP-based OMAP platform with Atelier software components for Symbian >> TI stuff TI and Atelier Unveil Symbian-Based Wireless Platform for 2.5 and 3G handsets June 1, 2001 Texas Instruments The development of next generation (2.5 and 3G) handsets became easier for handset manufacturers today as Texas Instruments and Atelier unveiled a wireless hardware and software platform for Symbian-based wireless devices. TI's digital signal processor (DSP)-based OMAP family of processors, combined with Atelier's BC2 suite of wireless phone software components, wireless handset manufacturers will rapidly develop, test and deliver GPRS and 3G smartphones faster to market with enhanced system performance and battery life for wireless applications such as music and video streaming, e-mail and interactive gaming. "By combining TI's DSP-based OMAP platform with Atelier's wireless phone software expertise, next generation mobile device developers will be able to take advantage of state of the art technology to produce compelling Symbian-based wireless information devices in record time," said Jeremy Copp, Vice President, Business Relationships, Symbian. "This combined hardware and software platform will enable handset manufacturers to deliver a wide range of devices in a greatly reduced timeframe." TI's OMAP architecture is not only architected to support all 2G, 2.5G and 3G wireless standards, but also delivers an open software environment to provide new applications for wired and wireless downloading. TI's OMAP platform is supported by a broad network of developers who design popular applications including multimedia, security, m-commerce, gaming and location based services, in addition to TI's Code Composer Studio Integrated Development Environment and eXpressDSP-compliant algorithms. "Next generation wireless smart phones will be required to deliver the best of all worlds - high levels of performance, long battery life, and a multitude of dynamic, user friendly applications and services in a sleek handheld design," said Paul Werp, TI OMAP Platform Worldwide Marketing Manager. Atelier's BC2 Mobile Phone Software is optimized for TI's high performance, DSP-based OMAP platform. Atelier's BC2 Mobile Phone Software can be used at any stage of the development of a new wireless device and provides handset manufacturers with all the necessary phone software components to rapidly prototype, design and implement the telephony part of a 2.5 or 3G communicator or smartphone. << - Eric -
