Motive is rapidly moving forward with the Freeview Tablet TV development.
The company has signed a licensing agreement with Freeview entitling Motive to use the Freeview identity in the UK for its Tablet TV solution, and this week applied for membership in the UK Digital Television Group (DTG) that publishes and maintains the “D-book” technical specifications for Freeview in the UK.
In addition to joining the DTG organisation of Freeview suppliers, Motive will make its technology available to DTG qualified hardware vendors through a software development kit. Motive intends to license its Freeview Tablet TV solution to multiple device makers for the UK market and is aiming for a test demonstration by Autumn 2013.
Last May, the company abbounced it will develop its tablet television technology to enable Freeview users in Britain to watch and record television programmes directly onto tablets without the need to connect to the internet.
