Toshiba Corp. and Infineon Technologies AG, a leading German semiconductor and system solution company, have jointly developed an interface between their microchips that enables the transmission, decoding and encoding of video to next-generation dual-mode cellular phones, Toshiba said Monday.
With the interface, subscribers will be able to receive and view moving images on cellular terminals and to transmit streaming video from terminals equipped with a camera, the major Japanese electronics maker said.
Takeshi Nakagawa, vice president of Toshiba's in-house Semiconductor Co., said, "This collaboration with Infineon will give us greater leverage in bringing it (the microchip) to world markets."
