04.11.2011
The EU webinos consortium headed by Fraunhofer FOKUS is excited to announce that an important milestone has been achieved. The webinos consortium has released its first specifications and is inviting external feedback from car companies, phone manufacturers, mobile operators, TV companies, broadcasters and application and software developers. The specification builds upon the Device APIs and security work driven within W3C, HTML5, PhoneGap and the Wholesale Application Community (WAC), Already webinos members are developing implementations on different devices and operating systems – to trial and enhance these specifications. The webinos objective is to define a ubiquitous platform for secure, interoperable web application deployment. It is not just about getting web applications running in isolation on phones, but providing the technical architecture to allow web applications to run on, and communicate across, multiple device types (TV, Car, PC, Mobile).
