INTEL DEVELOPER FORUM--In the opening address at the Intel
Developer Forum (IDF), CEO Brian Krzanich highlighted new products,
tools and programs that support the growing personalization of
computing and described the trends creating new opportunities for
developers across an unprecedented breadth of technologies.
Krzanich said computing has become increasingly personal,
enhancing nearly all aspects of life. “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.”
An ecosystem is emerging around Intel to address these growing
opportunities for computing. Krzanich detailed many of the
essential products, technologies and tools from the company that
will help developers make the differentiated experiences
possible.
He 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 programs and toolkits for developers to help
speed industrial IoT solutions to market. And, for the highly
personalized world of wearable computing, Krzanich provided updates
on the Intel® Curie™ module and previewed a new reality competition
program called “America’s Greatest Makers,” produced by United
Artists Media Group* CEO Mark Burnett and appearing across leading
networks and properties of Turner Broadcasting*.
Each year at IDF, Intel shares its vision for the future of
technology innovation with the developers and partners who will
create the products, engineer the systems, render the movies,
and power the toys and devices that create amazing experiences.
Below are key announcements highlighted at this year’s forum.
IDF 2015 News Highlights:
- 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*1, 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 is collaborating with Mark
Burnett’s United Artists Media Group and Turner Broadcasting to
create a reality competition called “America’s Greatest Makers”
that will premiere in the first half of 2016 and showcase makers
competing for a $1 million prize by inventing wearable technology
and smart connected consumer devices powered by the Intel Curie
module.
- Intel introduced Intel® OptaneTM
technology, which is based on the revolutionary 3D XPointTM
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 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 products2 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 the fourth-quarter of this year.
- Intel announced a new software platform
created specifically for the Intel Curie module2, which includes all of the hardware, firmware,
software and application 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.
