Adobe Releases AIR Flash Platform for Smartphones
Adobe has updated its Flash Platform with the unveiling of Adobe AIR on mobile devices, a runtime for standalone applications to come out of the Open Screen Project. The initiative has witnessed support from close to 70 ecosystem partners. AIR provides developers with an environment for delivering applications outside the mobile browser and across multiple operating systems via mobile marketplaces and app stores.
According to a Strategy Analytics analysis from January 2010, more than 250 million smartphones are expected to support the full Flash Player by the end 2012. Mobile platforms that will support the full Flash Player include Android, the BlackBerry® platform, Symbian® OS, Palm® webOS and Windows Mobile.
Adobe AIR supports specific functionality offered by mobile operating systems and devices such as multi-touch, gesture inputs, accelerometer, geolocation and screen orientation. The company says that with Flash Platform tooling and the Adobe Creative Suite, developers and content publishers can create, test and deliver applications to multiple devices and operating systems using a single tool chain and API set across platforms. Developers using Adobe Flash Professional CS5 with the Adobe Packager for iPhone can reuse their iPhone application code to create the same application for Android.
This follows Adobe’s recent release of a beta Flash Player 10.1 that was recently made available to content providers and mobile developers worldwide.With the general availability expected in the first half of 2010, Flash Player 10.1 is the first consistent runtime release of the Open Screen Project enabling uncompromised Web browsing of expressive applications, content and high definition (HD) videos across screens including new tablet devices, smartphones, netbooks, smartbooks, desktops and other consumer electronics.
“We are excited about the progress with Flash Player 10.1 and the work that developers, content publishers and close to 70 partners in the Open Screen Project have done so far as part of the beta program,” said David Wadhwani, general manager and vice president, Platform Business at Adobe. “With the Flash Platform further advancing on mobile devices, we enable developers and content publishers to deliver to any screen, so that consumers have open access to their favorite interactive media, content, and applications across platforms.”
