Wind River joins Open Screen Project

Wind River is to license, distribute and support Adobe Flash Player 10.x, Adobe AIR 2.x, and Flash Lite 4.x across its portfolio of Internet-facing software platforms as well as offer integration, certification and support for these products.

This follows on from Wind River's decision to join the Open Screen Project as a scaling partner for Adobe.

The www.openscreenproject.org Open Screen Project has more than 70 industry partners led by Adobe aiming to provide consumers consistent Internet and rich media experiences across the broadest possible range of consumer electronics.

Wind River is one of eight global scaling partners than can offer licenses for these products directly to companies worldwide.

The first  move sees Flash Player 10.1 and AIR incorporated in to Wind River Platform for Android. Wind River will work with customers to integrate Adobe Flash and AIR with their devices, and ensure their devices are compliant with the Open Screen Project certification test suites.
 
With support for Flash Lite already on products such as Wind River Platform for Android, the company is extending its collaboration with Adobe.  As part of the Open Screen Project, Wind River will keep Flash open and updatable in its software stack, as well as offer support customers with upgrade services.

Adobe Flash Player 10.1 licenses and support are now available from Wind River. Licenses and support for Adobe AIR will be available following Adobe’s introduction of AIR for the embedded and mobile market segments.
