YOU i Labs announces beta program for intelligent software GPU with Android 2.x integration
Integration of isGPU dramatically boosts Android performance and reduces
processor demands, particularly on lower-cost devices
OTTAWA, Nov. 30 /PRNewswire/ - YOU i Labs (http://www.youilabs.com), developer and marketer of intelligent graphics and user interface
technologies, has watched with great interest as Google's Android
platform has required more processing power with each subsequent
release. In response, YOU i Labs today announced it has integrated its
intelligent software graphics processing unit technology, or isGPU,
into Android, creating a much slimmer and faster Android while
maintaining its rich feature set. A call for participants in the beta
program is now underway.
Already proven in over one million devices, isGPU is a cost-effective,
100-percent-software-based approach that brings a new level of
responsiveness to the entire Android UI. Working with leading handset
manufacturers and silicon companies, YOU i Labs has tested and
demonstrated its isGPU on a wide array of hardware platforms running
Android 2.x.
"The market is excited by the development opportunities that Android
presents, but requires a way to exploit the platform on devices with
minimal resources," said Jason Flick, CEO of YOU i Labs. "By
integrating our isGPU technology into Android, we're offering the best
of both worlds - one of the world's most popular and developer-friendly
mobile operating systems running on lower-cost, consumer-friendly
devices."
With the addition of the company's extensive graphics libraries into
Android 2.x, user experiences on lower-cost Android devices will be
transformed from sluggish and unimpressive to smooth and enjoyable.
isGPU libraries support dozens of the leading hardware platforms and
provide a 50 to 100 percent speed improvement.
In this post-iPhone era, usability is measured in frames per second and
immediate response times. The device screen must move, without
hesitation, to the user's every touch. It can't lag or stutter and
leave the user waiting. isGPU makes Google's Android platform faster by
working smarter and using less of the CPU's resources. Less processing
also means longer battery life.
To enter the beta program, please send an email to info@youilabs.com with "isGPU beta" in the subject line. A video demonstration of the
isGPU on Android devices can be viewed at http://www.youtube.com/youilabs.
