| IDF Shanghai: Keynote Demos Showcase Mobility, Innovation |
 |
In this video podcast straight from Intel's Spring
IDF in Shanghai, the spotlight is on the keynote
demos that showed power and performance in newer,
smaller and more innovative form factors, many
powered by the Intel's Atom processor. Many of the
demonstrations focused on mobility, and they all
provided an exciting look at some of the
technologies that are just around the corner.
Dr. Ren Ng, president and CEO of Refocus Imaging,
led a demo of his company's light field cameras,
which record the full light field as it enters the
camera, ultimately extending the capabilities of
conventional digital cameras and "turning camera
hardware into software." Ng explains that by doing
this, light field cameras "bring the economics and
power of Moore's Law to the camera system."
(snapshots from their Web site illustrate the
demo, which they re-created live, on stage at
IDF!).
Also on hand was Dr. Mendel Rosenblum, co-founder
and chief scientist at VMware. He shared the stage
with Intel Senior Vice President and General
Manager, Digital Enterprise Group, Pat Gelsinger,
to demonstrate a flex migration across four
generations of hardware as well as the value of
the deep collaboration between Intel and VMware.
There was a live demo by Classmate PC, following
the news-making announcement of the new, second
generation classmate ("featuring a 9-inch LCD
screen, 6-cell battery, 512MB memory, a 30GB hard
disk drive and a built-in webcam"), the unveiling
of Intel's Tukwila Itanium processor ("Two billion
transistors in one processor"), and a
mobility-focused Asianux demoonstration of the
breadth of Moblin Usage, including a new way to
play video from the Web and a new way to order
Chinese food.
A Montevina demo was noteworthy after Intel Senior
Vice President and General Manager of Intel's
Mobility Group, Dadi Perlmutter, revealed that
Intel's next generation mobile platform,
Montevina, will provide twice the 3D processing
power of any current integrated solution.
Demos showcasing Neusoft driver assistance, Fuwa
robot, Adobe Air, Sobey real-time rendering and
MID & mobile designs rounded out the event. Tags : podtech intel idf shanghai mobility ren ng refocus imaging light field cameras mendel rosenblum vmware pat gelsinger |
