Mobica adopting Ubuntu Core for embedded device development

London 31 May 2011: Mobica is partnering with Canonical in the adoption of  Ubuntu Core, a sub-set of Ubuntu technologies suited for the next generation of Internet-enabled embedded devices such as In-Vehicle Infotainment (IVI) systems, set top boxes, smart TV and digital devices for the home. Mobica, providers of high-end software development and integration services, is among a number of Canonical partners adopting Ubuntu Core to build new embedded experiences based on broad architecture and open source technologies.

Mobica will offer Ubuntu Core development expertise to its electronics manufacturer, operator, application vendor and platform provider customers as a new platform for developing fully customised, creative UIs, low level and system software, multimedia implementations and applications. Ubuntu Core’s neutral platform supports Intel and ARM equally, offering excellent cross-architecture support for an almost limitless choice in the types of devices that can be developed.

Jim Carroll, CTO at Mobica comments; “Mobica has a proven track record as well as the skills and experience to work across mobile platforms, which can be adapted to virtually all areas of device development across all platforms. Our relationship with Canonical is important in helping us bring greater choice and opportunities to our customers and partners deploying full featured operating systems for next generation embedded devices.”

Chris Kenyon, VP OEM services at Canonical, concludes; “Ubuntu Core gives manufacturers and their suppliers access to the broadest set of hardware support from any open-source vendor; the ability to ship with an Ubuntu-based desktop experience; and allows them to develop their own interface or use one from a third party. Canonical is already attracting much industry interest for its Ubuntu Core capabilities. Mobica’s expertise will help our customers and partners deliver high quality, highly compelling software products to market.”
