TAT to Enrich S60 UI

TAT at a recent press release has announced that TAT’s technology would enable S60 developers to push UI boundaries to even greater heights. Developers can now easily add advanced graphics such as 3D, change effects and also add skins without having to change existing software or add expensive hardware.

TAT Kastor, the next generation UI rendering platform, is now available on the S60 mobile platform. The benefits from TAT Kastor address the need to render advanced graphics on any type of color screens. This allows handset vendors to offer devices with sophisticated and graphically animated user interfaces, without major changes to the software or need for advanced hardware. By pushing graphics to advanced screens more efficiently than traditional software, TAT Kastor on the S60 mobile platform makes the user interface look more advanced than the hardware normally would allow. And importantly, it does so without extensive changes to existing software.

TAT Kastor sets a new foundation that ensures you will be able to develop your products in an efficient, reliable and flexible environment that grows with your needs. It opens up a broad spectrum of possibilities for customization and code reuse and it decouples modules, which allows for an entirely new way of plugging custom modules into the platform.

• Powerful particle system, enabling stunning cinematic effects and organic UI behaviors.

• A versatile and modularized architecture with possibilities to add custom effects and plug-in functionalities.

• Hardware adaptations taking advantage of the power of the new generation hardware acceleration platforms based on OpenGL|ES 2.0
