CE AVG (Audio, Video, Graphic) Embedded Software Platform
Flexible, high performance and optimized open solutions for embedded devices
The consumer electronics industry is undergoing a fundamental transformation from analog to digital technology. Next Generation CE promises to provide consumers with enhanced control over their media experiences. However in reality, Next Generation CE Market will require the Device Maker to design their product under Open Standard Specs from the very beginning, in order to access contents, devices, network connectivity and interoperability. Moreover, Open Standard also allows manufactures to have the flexibility when migrating across different hardware platforms.
KatDC's product, MediaWalker® offers flexible, high performance and optimized open solutions for embedded devices. Device manufacturers wishing to develop products and build in portability can now leverage the performance of MediaWalker®, as an Open-Standard AVG (Audio/Video/Graphics) embedded software platform that consists of a unique life-cycle operating environment and a Lego-like components framework.
MediaWalker® includes 4 core modules. These 4 components are Graphics API, Networking API, Media API and Application API that provide better interactive viewing experiences on client devices. The seamless integration of the 4 modules, with the core CPU, helps our customers get to market faster with more innovative and differentiating products.
