Ekioh has added DTVKit’s HbbTV technology to the Ekioh TV Browser, providing the Bristol-based organisation with its first turn-key HbbTV solution.
“Our customers have been asking for the option of a commercially sourced browser for some time”, said Phil Evans, CEO of DTVKit. “They value the engineering support, additional features and product roadmap for such a complex and core part of the overall solution. By combining the DTVKit HbbTV solution and the Ekioh
browser, we have been able to make available a high quality turn-key product that can be taken straight into production.”
“The HbbTV receiver market is one of the most cost aggressive environments in the industry”, added Stephen Reeder, Commercial Director at Ekioh. “The performance and memory usage benefits of the Ekioh TV Browser have helped drive down the overall bill of materials, more than accounting for the cost of the browser itself.”
The joint solution will be demonstrated by Broadcom Corporation at the ANGA COM exhibition in Cologne, Germany 9-11 June 215 running on Broadcom’s BCM7362 silicon.
