Amino Technologies plc, based near Cambridge, UK, has announced the establishment of an independent business, InAct Software Limited. The new company will license its IntAct software solutions to set-top box (STB) OEMs and ODMs, semiconductor manufacturers, service operators and system integrators. In addition, service operators and integrators are also expected to license Amino's set-top box designs through IntAct Software Ltd.

 

After much product development, third party interoperability and pre-integration, The IntAct IPTV (News - Alert) solution now consists of both a client software stack and IP STB server management tools. The new solution provides IPTV operators using IntAct with a wide range of middleware, conditional access, silicon, head-end system and browser technology.

 

According to a recent press release, the pre-established interoperability is expected to "drive down deployment costs and reduce time to market the complete IPTV system."

"The number of volume deployments of IPTV networks should increase significantly in 2007 enabling local manufacture that brings associated reductions in import costs and multi-sourcing of set-top boxes operating a common software solution to ensure service reliability. IntAct offers its licensees these benefits," commented Karthik Ranjan, Vice President Sales and Marketing, IntAct in a statement to the press.
