One step beyond to have Augmented Reality on Mobiles.
Flash Professional CS5 will enable you to build applications for iPhone and iPod touch using ActionScript 3! These applications can be delivered to iPhone and iPod touch users through the Apple App Store.
A public beta of Flash Professional CS5 with prerelease support for building applications for iPhone is planned for later this year.
How AS3 looks on: Palm, iPhone, Windows Mobile, Android OS, Nokia Symbian OS, BlackBerry, TVs…
At MAX 2009, Kevin Lynch, Adobe CTO, demos Flash Player 10.1 for mobile devices, smartphones and netbooks.
Today Adobe will announce *FULL* Flash Player for 19 of 20 mobile brands
At MAX, Adobe’s worldwide developer conference will announce with its partners their progress to bring Flash support to, between others, BlackBerry handsets. I guess iPhone will be again the black ship of the story… Anyway, an Organization of 50 companies called Open Screen Project created by Adobe to promote the evolution of richer mobile, tv, and desktop browsing experiences, by giving the welcome to BlackBerry, will achieve 19 out of 20 mobile handset top manufacturers.
Adobe is also announcing support for HTTP streaming and several new mobile-ready features, including multi-touch, gestures, accelerometer, and screen orientation.
Flash Player 10.1 is the first consistent browser-based runtime from the Open Screen Project that offers browsing of Flash-based web apps, HD video, and other content on smartphones, netbooks and other Internet-enabled devices.
Flash support is also expected for several other mobile platforms, including Google Android, Symbian, Palm webOS, and Windows Mobile. A public developer beta will be available for Windows Mobile, webOS, and desktop operating systems before the end of the year. A public developer beta for Android and Symbian should be announces early in 2010, with general availability and publicly available devices coming in the first half of 2010.
That sounds great for AR mobile development! Just to let you know that Adobe is also interested in FLARToolkit, watch this Augmented Reality presentation for MAX 2009: http://max.adobe.com/MAXar/
So it sounds like sooner than later we will be delivering FLAR experiences on mobiles -Probably using also gyro, accelerometer and GPS-.
Shantanu Naraye, CEO of Adobe, recently announced during Adobe’s ‘earnings call’ with investors that they will release a beta version of Flash Player 10 (FP10) for smartphones. The release will come during October at Adobe MAX 2009. We knew this was coming but now we have a set date and confirmation.
“We are bringing Flash Player 10 to smartphone class devices to enable the latest web browsing experience. Multiple partners have already received early version of this release and we expect to release a beta version for developers at our Max conference in October. Google’s Android, Nokia’s Symbian OS, Windows Mobile and the new Palm Web OS will be the first devices to support web browsing with the new Flash player…”
One question: Will they let us access live video?
Tomorrow is just a day away. (not for you iPhone, sorry)
