Infineon Technologies announced availability of its new camera multimedia platform that brings camera functionality, polyphonic-ring tones, colour displays and Java capability to mid-range mobile phones. At the 3GSM 2004 show in Cannes, the chipmaker said that after design-in, the P2002+ platform has the potential to reduce the development time of mobile phones and derivatives by 25-50%, which is typically an average of three to six months. This is because the P2002+ platform features an APOXI (Application Programming Object-Oriented Extendable Interface) framework together with an APOXI reference MMI (man-machine interface) and pre-integrated applications. The P2002+ platform, which integrates Infineon's chips E-GOLD+ V3, SMARTi DC and E-Power ICs, is provided as a single, integrated board.
