The convergence of computing, multimedia and mobile communications
is well underway. Already the familiar voice phone is being
transformed into a personal device with a wide range of
multimedia capabilities. Soon mobile users will be able
to benefit from a broad spectrum of multimedia features
and services, to include capturing, sending and receiving
images, videos and music.
To deliver such data-heavy, processing-intensive services,
portable handheld systems must be optimized for high performance
but low power, space and cost. In response to this need,
the STn8815 processor platform from STMicroelectronics is
a culmination of breakthroughs in video coding efficiency,
inventive algorithms and chip implementation schemes. It
will enable smart phones, wireless PDAs, internet appliances
and car entertainment systems to play back media content,
record pictures and video clips, and perform bidirectional
audio-visual communication with other systems in real time.
The STn8815 focuses on the essential features to meet
the future needs of mobile products and services: a high-performance
multimedia capability coupled with low power consumption,
and based on an open platform strategy. |
