Intel and Nokia Create First Joint Mobile Device Laboratory

By

Intel Corporation, Nokia and the University of Oulu officially opened the Intel and Nokia Joint Innovation Center today. It will employ about two dozen R&D professionals and become the latest member of Intels European Research Network, Intel Labs Europe. Initially the lab will conduct research for new and compelling mobile user experiences that could leverage the rapidly increasing capabilities of mobile devices. Creating interfaces that are more similar to interactions in the real world can enable experiences that are more natural and intuitive, in the same way that modern games and movies are more immersive through the use of realistic 3-D graphics.

3-D technology could change the way we use our mobile devices and make our experiences with them much more immersive, said Rich Green, Senior vice president and chief technical officer, Nokia. Our new joint laboratory with Intel draws on the Oulu research communitys 3-D interface expertise, and over time will lay down some important foundations for future mobile experiences.
