Get the best time-to-market for your next mobile.
What is it?
ELIPS Suite is a highly optimized, complete application suite and Man-Machine Interface (MMI) for creating cost-effective mass-market mobile phones. It is the leading choice for handset makers or wireless chipset vendors who want cost efficiency, fast time-to-market, ease of differentiation and advanced functionality for the next hit products in their mobile handsets portfolio.
What problems does it solve?
Manufacturers compete aggressively to supply mobile phones to more than 4 billion people and counting. The design and development of the software that powers these phones is the most resource-consuming activity in the product lifecycle of device manufacturers. And for the most part, it is an activity which relies on proprietary software that doesn't scale.
In this context, ELIPS Suite is the ideal solution for all actors in the mobile phone manufacturing value chain. Now chipset vendors, ODMs and OEMs can share a software platform that allows them to develop an entire portfolio of devices in a scaleable way. With ELIPS Suite, it is possible to quickly create model variants from a single code base, catering for all segments from ultra-low to high-end, with an ever increasing array of features and differentiated user experiences. The net result is fast time-to-market and lower costs.
How does it work?
ELIPS Suite is supplied as an SDK that includes platform-independent source code for all the typical phone applications, like call dialler, contacts, SMS/MMS, text input, music player, internet browser, video conferencing, and more. It also includes a standard porting interface and a set of reference porting layers for the most popular baseband chipsets.
ELIPS Suite includes full touch screen support, rich animated graphics and UI effects, as well as the capability to download over-the-air personalised themes and applications. Thanks to OpenPlug's extensive development and design tools, delivering breathtaking user experiences that suit the most ambitious branding requirements from mobile operators and OEMs is just a breeze.
ELIPS Suite is designed around a modular applications framework with open APIs. Our framework leverages OpenPlug's patented component technology. This gives complete freedom in terms of extension and customisation. This also allows developers and integrators to select only the components that are needed for a specific project and - thanks to built-in code optimisations - minimises the memory footprint and CPU requirements.
You’ll find ELIPS Suite software on a wide variety of phones, including models from top device makers such as SonyEricsson or new companies launching innovative devices in emerging markets. ELIPS Suite has been successfully shipped in millions of units. It has passed conformity testing from leading operators, including O2, Orange, TIM and T-Mobile.
