Posted In: Mobile Content

Adobe Systems says it’s making strides in its efforts to make the mobile environment more enticing to desktop Flash developers as it holds its annual MAX user conference in San Francisco this week.

One area of progress is Adobe’s collaboration wtih ARM to enable Flash Player 10 and Adobe AIR for ARM-powered devices, ranging from cell phones to mobile Internet devices.

Adobe also has been collaborating with Qualcomm, an Open Screen Project (OSP) supporter, as well. Qualcomm has launched the BREW Mobile Platform SDK, which represents a big step forward for the vision of OSP, according to Steve Sprigg, senior vice president of engineering for Qualcomm CDMA Technologies. It’s designed to help Web developers quickly apply their applications to a full range of mobile devices without having to create a whole new code specific to wireless.

The plan is to make the tools available to developers now, so their apps will be ready when the first significant number of Flash-enabled cell phones, as a result of new partnerships, come to market next year.

Adobe Flash Player 10 for ARMv6 and ARMv7 architecture-based hardware is expected to be available royalty-free to OSP partners. Flash Player 10 for ARM processor-based devices will be made available to OEMs by Adobe.
