Developers have more opportunities to succeed as computing becomes increasingly personalised, says Intel CEO Brian Krzanich at the Intel Developer Forum (IDF) keynote earlier this month. IDF ran from August 18 to 20 in San Francisco, US.
Key announcements highlighted at this year’s forum include:
Intel RealSense technology will be available on a wide-range of platforms, opening up more opportunities for developers to create new depth-sensing hardware and software. In addition to Windows and Android, developers will be able to use Intel RealSense technology with Mac OS X, ROS, Linux, Scratch*, Unity, XSplit, OBS, Structure SDK, OSVR, Unreal Engine 4 and Google’s Project Tango. Also, a number of developers, including Razer, XSplit and Savioke announced new platforms, peripherals and other solutions based on the Intel RealSense technology.
In collaboration with Google, Intel is driving innovation in mobile depth sensing by combining Google’s Project Tango and Intel RealSense technologies into an Android smartphone developer kit. The Intel RealSense Smartphone developer kit featuring Google’s Project Tango enables new experiences, including indoor navigation and area learning, virtual reality, 3-D scanning, and more. The developer kit is targeted for release to select Android developers by the end of this year.
Intel introduced Intel Optane technology, which is based on 3D XPoint non-volatile memory media and combined with the company’s advanced system memory controller, interface hardware and software IP, to unleash vast performance potential in a range of forthcoming products. Intel Optane technology will first come to market in a new line of high-endurance, high-performance Intel solid state drives (SSDs) beginning in 2016. The new class of memory technology will also power a new line of Intel DIMMs designed for Intel’s next-generation data center platforms.
Fossil Group previewed three Intel technology-based products resulting from its wearables collaboration with Intel - first announced in September 2014 - including a connected watch running Android Wear. The products will be available in Q4 this year.
Intel announced a new software platform created specifically for the Intel Curie module, which includes all of the hardware, firmware, software and application software development kit (SDK) needed to enable a variety of device experiences. Intel IQ Software Kits will support future versions of this platform.
Intel’s Enhanced Privacy Identification (EPID) technology will be implemented by leading IoT sensor and microcontroller vendors including Atmel and Microchip to help secure an increasingly smart and connected world.
“Computers are on our desks, in our bags, in our clothes, in our homes and on our bodies. They are not only growing smarter and more connected, but gaining senses and becoming an extension of ourselves,” he said.
An ecosystem is emerging around Intel to address these growing opportunities for computing. Krzanich unveiled a number of updates to Intel RealSense technology that will bring depth sensing to more devices and applications, and announced new collaborations for securing the Internet of Things (IoT), in addition to programmes and toolkits for developers to help speed industrial IoT solutions to market. For wearable computing, the epitome of personalisation, Krzanich shared updates on the Intel Curie module.
