Samsung wants to bring the cars Tizen

    These days intense being well as information concerning Tizen relates . This environment , that we were seeing it change between MeeGo mid - project that was born and died with the Nokia N9 , with the help of the Finnish and Intel - and Bada OS with a clear - Samsung - flavored , and has been featured in a device the camera NX300M of South Korea . But since the multinational leader in sales of phones and smartphones , have advanced plans for this ecosystem developed with Intel . And the prospects are anticipated very inclusive in terms of the type of devices you would see running Tizen .

     The last thing that is known is that Tizen might come preinstalled on motor Toyota, Jaguar and Land Rover. From the South Korean media ET News echo negotiations that Samsung could be carried out with the companies responsible for the manufacture of these vehicles , with a view to making smart choices gradually become a place of privilege in the art of any newly developed car are stocked Tizen hand .

     The Korean said means also refers to the very enlightening statements Mark Skarpness , head of the American department dedicated Intel Systems Engineering in the Centre open source technology . According to these, Tizen features make it a perfect environment if we want to adapt to the needs of a very diverse nature equipment . This would support the idea that was already being planted in recent days, and that shows the possibility we see Tizen 3.0 on smart phones , tablets , TVs , cameras and even refrigerators, Skarpness said .

    This team leader Intel also announced that it is working hard to get that reach Tizen devices be fully efficient with low RAM memory load , which greatly expand the fork of devices that could be made to work with the platform. He also noted that it would be during the third quarter of next year when they would be ready to give out the most complete version of the system.

    This confirms that a trend this year began to show signs of strength in 2014 will be a new field of competition between manufacturers : the operating system . At this time, there are four settings that govern the contest : Android , iOS , Windows Phone and BlackBerry OS , in order of market presence . But a while now witnessing the proliferation of new environments such as Firefox OS , Ubuntu or Jolla , who will join the natural heir to MeeGo . Recall that the failed platform was also designed to operate in a multitude of devices, ranging from smart phones tablets , through netbooks, GPS devices and even, as in the case becoming visible , onboard computers in motor vehicles.

Samsung makes quiet push for new mobile OS Tizen to challenge Android

   SEOUL , South Korea - Most cell phone users have never heard of Tizen . Neither car owners or anyone with a refrigerator .

Samsung Electronics Co. wants to change that .

    The South Korean electronics giant is in a quiet push to use part of its technology lexicon Tizen OS as familiar as Google 's Android or Apple's iOS . The ambition does not stop there. Samsung sees the software in your car , fridge and TV also .

     The first developer conference in Asia for Tizen packed after a two-day run , app developers and supporters of Tizen Samsung , Intel and mobile operators to bring . Together Tuesday

     Samsung has a Tizen phone not announce , but it made a pitch for developers to make the mobile operating system that can still be seen in the market apps. Samsung promised to spend $ 4 million in cash to the creators of the best Tizen apps.

     Samsung shipped about a third of the smartphones sold in the third quarter , nearly all run on Google 's Android worldwide. His early bet on Google's free- of-charge operating system Samsung served well and rise of the company to top smartphone vendor also helped Android become the most widely used mobile platform in the world . According Localytics , is 63 percent of all Android mobile devices in use are made by Samsung .

     But while Samsung was hugely successful with the sale of its Galaxy phones and tablets , it had little success in locking Galaxy devices in music , messaging and other services Samsung . Google , however, benefited from more people using the search service , Google Play app and other mobile applications from Google Galaxy smartphones . Owners of Galaxy devices remain a slave for most of Google 's Android update schedule and its rules .

      About nine in 10 smartphone users are bound to either Google 's Android or Apple 's iPhone ecosystem , generating profits for Google and Apple every time they purchase a game or application on their smartphone .

     That's partly the reason why Samsung wants to expand beyond hardware to software , its control by building its own mobile operating system .

     "With only the hardware , its influence is limited , " said Kang Yeen - kyu , an associate research fellow at the state-run Korea Information Society Development Institute . "The purpose of Samsung is an ecosystem focused on Samsung settle . "

      The consolidation of global technology companies in recent years reflects such trends . Apple always has its own operating system for the iPhone. Google Inc. acquired Motorola Mobility in 2011, Microsoft Corp. announced in September its plans to buy Nokia Corp. , making Samsung the only major player in the smartphone market , that does not make its own operating system .

     Samsung executives told analysts last week that the company plans to beef up its software competitive position through acquisitions and splashing cash on the development of mobile content and services .

     But Tizen 's start appears bumpy . Samsung said earlier this year the first Tizen phone would hit the market this fall , but it has not materialized . Samsung declined to comment on the release of updates comment.

      Even though Choi Jong- deok , Samsung 's executive vice - president of the surveillance of Tizen , said a launch of Tizen phone or televisions will happen " very soon " , analysts said Samsung is unlikely to reveal the first Tizen device to February the next year , when the company said it will announce . winners are Tizen app contest

      At the developer conference , Samsung gave more clues about how her first Tizen device would look and found that they recently launched a Tizen - based camera in South Korea .

     Tizen would work in a wide range of consumer electronics made ​​by Samsung , includes mobile devices , televisions, refrigerators and portable devices . The mobile operating system will also work with cars . Samsung and Intel said Toyota Motor Corp. and Jaguar Land Rover are working together to Tizen OS to bring vehicles.

     " You can apply once relatively easy to build and move from device to device , " Mark Skarpness , director of systems engineering at Intel Corp. , told the conference .

      Samsung and Intel are also aimed to capture the emerging markets where the demand for cheaper smartphones grows . Towards a larger share of the company Skarpness said future versions of Tizen will support lower - end phones , the same direction that Google takes with its latest version of Android , KitKat .

        "I got the impression that Tizen is benchmarking Android ," said Park Minhyung , a developer who attended the conference . " Speakers at the session said that they adopted strong features of Android . But with Android's rather well established in the market , I wonder how Tizen would undermine . The leader "
