ARM Community: TechCon3: Advancing mobile computing & graphics interfaces - ARM Community

At ARM TechCon3 last week, we had a chance to catch up with Brian Carlson of TI and Bill Galione of ST-Ericsson.

Brian Carlson took us through some of the emerging ARM based mobile computing devices using TI’s OMAP 3 technology. The highly responsive Palm Pre which is powered by the ARM Cortex-A8 which supports multiple applications at a time. The Archos internet tablet is the first OMAP 3 Android product that runs at 800 MHz. This very fast device can open multiple windows at one time and has a handy touch magnifying tool for close up reading. Carlson says there is much to look forward to from the OMAP 4 and the ARM Cortex-A9 including increased performance of 3 to 4x, 1080p and full HD video capabilities in future mobile devices. Watch the video below to see the interview and devices first hand.

In the next video below Bill Galione talks about what the Mali-400 and the Mali Developers Center means to the world of graphics. With devices moving towards smart mobility, consumers want a better user interface and mobile browsing. The U85 ST-Ericsson platform and ARM Mali technology is enabling 1080p with very high performance, impressive multi-media and low-power on ARM Cortex-A9 based devices. Not to mention the deployment of the Mali Developers Center will help give developers access to very powerful multi-media platforms enabling early development of visually sophisticated devices.
