Consumer Electronics With Intel Inside

Intel has teamed up with adobe with the sole purpose of using flash technology in consumer electronics, such as set-top boxes and high-definition TVs. This is a great idea and it will provide Intel with a new market, in which strong and powerful processors are needed.

In order for Flash to work with such high definition pictures, powerful processors are needed and Intel is just the company to design and provide them. This comes after former chairman of Intel, said in an interview that it would be a good idea for Intel to enter the electric car battery market.

The idea sounded bizarre to say the least, one of the biggest chip manufacturers also designing and producing batteries for electric cars, but the step outside the computer market was done, and it’s definitively better than car batteries.

Intel plans to ship the processors with Adobe Flash Lite support by the middle of the year, and content providers will be able to add all sort of entertainment services that will use Flash technology.

Intel has developed processors for the consumer electronics market, which requires more computing and graphics power to handle high-resolution images. The Intel Media Processor CE3100 system-on-a-chip platform enables high-resolution imaging and broadcast TV for consumer electronics devices.

All in all, this is terrific news for the regular consumer. As technology gets more advanced, so is our ways of entertainment. Once we used all sort of devices to do all sort of things, the time is close when we will have just one, elegant device that can do everything.
