BOSTON—The Khronos Group continued to gain steam as high-profile players including Apple Computer Inc., Dell Computer Corp. and Google Inc. joined the association’s effort to develop open standards for mobile phones and computers.
Khronos aims to define open standards for the development of dynamic media across platforms. Other members include Motorola Inc., Nokia Corp., LG Electronics Co. Ltd., Qualcomm Inc., Sony Ericsson Mobile Communications L.P., Ericsson Mobile Platforms and SK Telecom.
“The lines continue to blur between different classes of devices,” said Jon Peddie of Jon Peddie Research, “and so it is crucial to have a single body that is able to drive a coherent set of cross-platform standards to create new market opportunities for the entire graphics and media industry.”
