Samsung Electronics Co. Ltd and Symbian Limited announced the Samsung INNOV8, (model : i8510). This ultimate entertainment mobile phone is equipped with high-end features and multimedia including an 8 megapixel camera, internet browsing and ergonomics. This is Samsung’s eighth mobile phone based on Symbian OS™, the global market-leading open mobile operating system for mobile phones.

INNOV8 is based on Symbian OS v9.3, bringing the highest level of power efficiency, platform security and phone performance. It includes demand paging, an OS component that enables shorter start-up times for applications and advanced memory management resulting in more responsive applications and phone features. This ensures INNOV8 works as quickly as mid-range phones only with better quality features suitable for consumers who want more from their handset.

INNOV8 brings users a ‘cinema in your pocket’ experience through access to a rich suite of applications from the S60 applications library, they can watch videos, including DivX files, view pictures and play two exclusively free embedded 3D games on the 2.8” LCD display. With HSDPA connectivity at 7.2Mbps and seamless connection through Wi-Fi, Samsung INNOV8’s optical mouse and easy navigation enables users’ quick internet browsing, alongside GPS and geo-tagging.

Some key multimedia and security features include audio and video capture and recording framework, still image conversion, 3D graphics support, application capability management and application data caging. In 2007, Samsung launched six mobile phones based on Symbian OS, including the Samsung i400, i450, i458, i520, i550 and i560. All seven phones are currently available in the market.

MWC ’08 - French Pavillion

Stantum exhibits its Pmatrix multi-touch technology

Stantum, a pioneer in multi-touch sensing technology, will demonstrate its Pmatrix multi-touch technology at the 2008 Mobile World Congress (Hall 2, French Pavillion Booth 2G51).  Stantum developed and tailored Pmatrix to meet the needs of handset and display manufacturers, and will display a set of smart mobile applications which illustrate the power of this unique technology.

Stantum's 3.5" multi-touch panel prototype relies on its PMatrix technology to provide unprecedented user experience for the cell phone owner and a greater UI design flexibility for handset manufacturers and mobile application developers. Unlike projected-capacitive touch solutions and in addition to provide truly unlimited multi-touch detection, Stantum's multi-touch sensor can track both fingers and stylus. Moreover, the touch detection works perfectly with nails and is neither affected by wet nor sweat.

Stantum's technology portfolio offers true multi-touch interfaces that let users simultaneously move an unlimited number of fingers, nails or utensils such as styli on a screen. Fitting any form-factor, it enables integrators to design extremely innovative multi-touch interfaces for their own products, thus simplifying the development process and considerably shortening the product's time-to-market.  Stantum offers customers with tailor-made, integrated and cost-effective multi-touch solutions by way of components or licenses -- that precisely fit their individual needs.

 Stantum Technologies (formerly JazzMutant) has pioneered multi-touch technologies since its founding in 2002. The following year, it developed the world's first multi-touch screen that could track an unlimited number of fingers at once and in 2005 launched Lemur, the first multi-touch product available on the market. Today, Stantum's technology portfolio and product offerings cover every aspect of multi-touch interaction, including sensor design, multi-touch controllers, intellectual property cores, software integration, and application programming interfaces. Stantum is headquartered in Bordeaux, France, with the U.S. accounting for about one-third of its worldwide sales.
