Elektrobit Unveils Optimized Features to its MID Reference Design

Elektrobit (News - Alert) Corporation has reportedly introduced various optimized features to its MID reference design, which are the enhancements of its EB MID Reference Device, the company said. The company has reportedly worked with Intel (News - Alert) and Ericsson to upgrade this design.

 

With the help of cutting-edge desktop features, the solution helps users multi-task and personalize the device. It also makes use of latest UI technologies, such as 3D, plasma desktop and haptics to provide vivid, sophisticated appearances. The EB MID Reference Device can also be modified to a customers' brand and target market requirements with a wide range of cellular connectivity options.

 

EB joined Intel's MID Innovation Alliance in April 2007 and developed EB Mobile Internet Multimedia Device reference device as a proof of concept for Intel's MID category. As a technology company, EB now offers the reference device under license to OEM's looking to develop a MID device.

 

“Since 2007, we have collaborated with both Intel and Ericsson (News - Alert) on the world's first MID reference devices, we've leveraged our expertise and understanding of MIDs to transform basic concepts into cutting-edge designs that would enhance the end-user experience,” said Vesa Kiviranta, vice president, EB Wireless Solutions, in a statement. "The intuitiveness brought forth by advanced technological features in our reference design further adds to our credibility and extensive knowledge of the MID market.”

 

Now, customers can quickly and cost-effectively bring to market innovative MID solutions by licensing EB's sophisticated MID reference design technology coupled with device customization services. EB MID Reference Device was recently named a runner-up in the Best of 4G Awards for Best Mobile Internet Device.

 

In February, the company revealed its EB Tough VoIP system at this week’s International Defense Exhibition and Conference 2009 held in Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates. This solution provides users with a strong and dependable way to communicate using IP data and voice services. The solution was designed to survive the toughest environmental conditions, officials said.
