D2 Technologies, a provider of embedded IP communications software platforms, and NetLogic Microsystems, a provider of semiconductor products, has launched mCUE converged communications client on NetLogic Microsystems’ Au1300, a low-power Alchemy processor.
The company claims that the collaborative offering delivers OEMs and ODMs a platform for Android-based IP communications devices such as media phones that offer embedded applications with an optimised performance, cost and power consumption profile.
According to D2 Technologies, the mCUE client software service integrated with the AU1300 supports all communications modes, including circuit-based (PSTN/cellular) voice call, VoIP, IM, SMS and video call, and provides integration of services such as GoogleTalk, Yahoo! Messenger and other forms of social networking and communications into a converged address book.
The companies said that the devices with mCUE provides users with presence-based and push-to-x control of circuit switched PSTN/cellular and VoIP calls, PBX feature activation, IM, email, SMS and other features. Its user interface, built on a multi-identity, multi-session, multi-protocol engine, enables interoperability with multiple communications services such as enterprise IP PBXs and UC systems, and commercial VoIM services.
NetLogic Microsystems’ Alchemy processors run at up to 800MHz, and integrate a video acceleration engine and 2D/3D graphics processor in a 537-pin BGA package with 0.65mm or 0.8mm ball pitches. The processors also include LCD controller with four graphics planes for 32-bit aRGB support, and the media acceleration engine provides H.264, MPEG 1/2/4, DivX, XviD, WMV9 and VC-1 hardware acceleration.
Mike Wodopian, vice president of marketing for ultra low-power Alchemy processors at NetLogic Microsystems, said: “By porting the mCUE software onto our Au1300 embedded processor family, we will be able to demonstrate advanced multi-mode unified communications and interoperability with social networking and IM communities for next-generation media-rich devices.”
