WHAT IS MediaWalker® Linux-Based Embedded Multimedia Platform Solution for Consumer Electronics Device MediaWalker®, is an Open-Standard embedded multimedia platform solution that consists of a unique service aggregation environment and a Lego-like service creation framework for home and portable devices. MediaWalker® is designed to resolve the complexity of GUI development and minimize the integration effort when come to integrate with different service applications for product developers. MediaWalker® PRODUCT INCLUDES Multimedia Solution with Open Standard Middleware and 2D/3D Service Creation Framework The middleware modules are fully compatible with industrial standards and are designed for Audio/Video media applications and unique design patterns to establish the seamless integration platform features. The service creation framework to enables efficient development of rich user interface. The application portability across product/service aggregation allows customers to maximize their return on investment and requires minimum customization efforts during platform migration. MediaWalker® Service Diagram     BENEFIT of USING MediaWalker® Better Service Integration Flexibility Open Standard compliance for better - Product line extensibility - Service and Internet content accessibility - Interoperability between devices (Such as DLNA, UPnP, etc) - Reduce development time Better GUI Presentation Lego-like GUI component and optimized graphics powered by custom 2D graphics library; 3D graphics based on OpenGL ES2.0 Specification (Hardware acceleration) MediaWalker®'s modularized architecture enables the flexibility to easily adjust the components and modules such as GStreamer, OpenMAX, UHAPI, DirectFB, HAVi and OpenGL ES UI framework. The portable service creation framework designed by KatDC minimized the integration effort between the software layer and the hardware layer. We adopt Java and OpenGL ES technology. Developers can focus on the development of the application only. MediaWalker® ARE DESIGNED FOR - Customer who takes GUI presentation serious - Customer who likes to minimize the integration effort - Customer who likes to have better access to variety services and Internet content MediaWalker® FEATURES - Optimized graphics powered by custom DirectFB 2D graphics library; 3D graphics based on OpenGL ES2.0 specification (w/ hardware acceleration) - Graphics support for 24/32-bit RGB/ARGB color, alpha blending with multiple graphic planes - 720p & above HD GUI quality and capability - Extendable middleware API support for display/player/networking, etc. - Application framework enabling reuse and replacement of components - Supports Java, C++ and ANSI C library and implementation - Media support for common audio, video, and still image formats.
