Intel and Nokia expand alliance to 3D interfaces



Nokia and Intel have announced a convention in which they merge their programming platforms that are widely spread: «Moblin» and «Maemo». Then, they unified their efforts in a single platform based on the operating system, «Linux». This programming works on many devices such as computers, notebook, smart phones, tablet PCs, multimedia phones, connected to net televisions, information systems and entertainment in cars. They will call the new system, which has an open source, MeeGo.

Nokia and Intel have become allies in a new clash of the operating systems with the joint creation of MeeGo. MeeGo is an operating system that blurs the line between a robust mobile phone OS and a lightweight netbook OS.

Nokia and Intel announced that they are developing a joint research center to create software for 3D and virtual reality experiences for use on mobile devices,the recent strategic alliance between the world's largest chipset producer Intel and the global leaders in mobile handset producer Nokia seems to build a new road of development for mobile computing. The alliance also extends to the realms of chipset architectures. It would be interesting to see the new developments that will take place as a result of this new alliance,for example , Nokia are teaming with Intel to bring 3D to mobile device.
