Intel: Dell, Toshiba, Acer tablets coming in 2011

Intel CEO Paul Otellini said today that its chips will be in more than 35 different tablet designs in 2011, while clarifying that two lines of Atom processors will be used in tablets.
"We're going to make sure we support all of the viable operating systems that are in the marketplace," Otellini said at the Barclays Capital 2010 Global Technology Conference. The conference audio was streamed live over the Internet.
Intel listed more than 15 brands, including upcoming consumer tablets from Toshiba, Dell, Lenovo, Asus, Acer, and Motion Computing. "A number of them on Windows. A number of them on Android--both Froyo and Honeycomb [versions of Android]," Otellini said.

"We have two flavors of products," Otellini said, speaking about the two lines of Atom processors for tablets. "One carries our PC legacy, the codename is Oak Trail. This is for the Windows environment. That's important for people who want the advantage of PC peripheral compatibility. All the printers in the world work, all the USB drivers in the world work. Any PC peripheral will work perfectly well with Oak Trail. [It is a] very solid, high-performance, low-power version of Atom," he said.
Otellini continued. "We have an even more optimized [Atom] version called Moorestown. For people who want the most lightweight, longest battery life, thinnest machine. It doesn't carry the PC compatibility. It's got the x86 instruction set, so Internet compatibility is there, but we're not worrying about legacy support [in Windows]," Otellini said.
"Consumer [tablet] products will roll out in the first half of next year on all three operating systems," he said.
Otellini also reiterated that getting Intel's chips into smartphones will take time. "It's a marathon, not a sprint." He said the second-generation Atom processor for phones, dubbed "Medfield," is "in customer sampling...for shipment [in phones] in 2011 and 2012. You will see smartphones from premier-branded vendors in the marketplace in [the second quarter of] 2011 with Intel silicon inside them."

Intel Showcase Excellence 'Sandy Bridge'

San Francisco - Intel Corporation exhibited a number of advantages of their latest products from Intel's Core processor family, in the event the Intel Developer Forum (IDF) in 2010. Intel Developer Forum that was held for the 13th time it was opened on Monday (13 / 9) before, and will be closed today, Wednesday (15 / 9).

As in the previous administration, also served as an IDF 2010 Intel Corporation meeting with the technology industry executives, designers, and engineers from across the world. They share their innovations in building technology, Moscone Center West, San Francisco, United States, where forum.

One of which was introduced in the forum is a new family of Intel Core processors, the code-named "Sandy Bridge". This processor is promised to make personal computer (PC) become more responsive and able to provide a better visual experience to PC users.

Through the release of Intel, Paul Otellini, president and CEO of Intel Corporation said that Sandy Bridge which is the second generation Intel Core processor family, allowing PC users experienced some things that they could not do before. Unless they use a desktop computer equipped with sophisticated graphics.

To prove his words were, Otellini showed someone who was playing the game "Starcraft II: Wings of Liberty" are popular, with full details on a laptop that uses Sandy Bridge, without an additional graphics card.



Visual effects in the game basically looks the same as played on a laptop that uses an additional graphics card. But laptops are apparently strong enough to play the game simultaneously record video in high definition (HD).

Dadi Perlmutter, executive vice president and general manager of Intel Architecture Group, also demonstrates some other advantages of the second generation Intel Core processor family is. Demo is related to how the growing PC users require more powerful computers.

Perlmutter showed the processor that will be produced starting fourth quarter 2010 also allows the resulting responsive computing, where users can search menggendalikan music and photos on your computer using your body movements via real-time 3D tracking software, GestureTek. He also shows a console gaming experience on the PC-based second-generation Intel Core processor, using Sixence control technology.

AVX new features on this processor is also capable of accelerating video broadcast motion tracking. Developers will benefit from this new instruction, because it can speed up the motion tracking and face recognition, image, video and audio processing, and computational simulation and analysis.

Perlmutter gave an example by showing a variety of security applications and information to analyze the video. A camera mounted at the entrance to the main room with a "video trip wire" to count the number of people who entered the room and detect objects that are lost or removed from the room.

Sandy Bridge also has a version of Intel's Turbo Boost technology that enhanced, allowing the processor core using heat tolerance of available reserves to increase their frequency in order to get the job done faster.

He showed that performance improvements occur when processing high-definition images into 3D models with ray tracing effects. With Anyar processor, the PC performance increases compared to the Intel Core processor-based system in 2010.

Sandy Bridge will also reportedly have dedicated hardware to process the video format. To highlight the benefits of this feature, Perlmutter quickly process the video into MP4 format standard, and then send it to the big screen television using the Intel Wireless Display Technology.

Planted to the personal computer processor "Sandy Bridge" This plan will be rolled into the market early next year.
