Sasken is to provide its multimedia component technology for NEC's next generation FOMA phones

This agreement follows on from the successful use of Sasken's multimedia player in NEC's e606 and e808 models, which have already been deployed in the market by the 3G network operator "3". The Sasken media player delivered to NEC is capable of supporting all MP4 format files, including MPEG-4 video, MPEG-4 AAC audio and AMR speech.

"Our experience in delivering the media player to NEC, and multimedia codec components to other developers, reinforces our ability to offer a broad range of applications to leading global handset suppliers", states Colin Aitken, Vice President of Marketing at Sasken.

"Having successfully integrated video capability over mobile into the NEC 3G handset range, we are now working to deliver multimedia components for FOMA handsets to enable a host of extended multimedia offerings".

The MPEG-4 media player is part of Sasken's range of mobile media codec engines and multimedia applications that also includes 3G 324 M video phone terminal and MMS client.

The latter supports 3GPP release 4 specifications and sustains both mandatory and optional media formats.

Sasken provides a wide range of multimedia applications as well as video, audio and speech codecs, all readily available on leading platforms.

Sasken licences its multimedia solutions to terminal equipment manufacturers around the world in addition to providing consultancy services for integration and customisation.
