Consumer Electronics and Mobile Terminals Software
While the consumer electronics (CE) industry continues to grow significantly,
several fundamental shifts are happening today. First, everything is becoming
connected blurring the lines between PCs, phones, digital picture frames, Mobile
Internet Devices (MIDs) and more. Further, consumers’ expectations of
innovation, small screen multimedia and improved usability continue to grow
exponentially, changing the competitive landscape from price and technology to
user experience.
A new plane of differentiation has emerged, with the focus shifting from
hardware to software. The rules of engagement are being re-defined by Apple, and
Google’s stake as a handset OEM.
These significant changes, coupled with huge market opportunities, have created
the need for new capabilities and solutions.

Aricent is the partner of choice for developing connected multimedia devices in
the experience era across multiple technologies, platforms and applications.
