Sony Ericsson to keynote 6Sight Mobile Imaging Summit in Sweden

(M2 PressWIRE Via Acquire Media NewsEdge) MALMO, Sweden -- Leading mobile phone producer Sony Ericsson will deliver a keynote presentation at the 6Sight Mobile Imaging Summit in Malmo Sweden. The keynote presented by Patrik Olsson, VP, Head of Software Platforms, will focus on the rapid increase in processing power and data transfer speeds on camera phones, and the implications and opportunities this has for mobile image processing.

-"Sony Ericsson has been a leader from the start of mobile imaging", said Olsen. "We were the first major mobile phone provider to launch clip-on cameras; then we provided leading mobile imaging capability via the Cybershot brand; and now weve recently launched Sony's Exmor sensor technology on mobile phones. Going forward, Sony Ericsson expects the rapid change in mobile phones with gigahertz processors and high bitrates, combined with the open service environment, to turn mobile phones into the most innovative devices for imaging."

Sony Ericsson will also sponsor the 6Sight Mobile Imaging Summit, which is co-hosted by 6Sight Conferences LLC, Scalado, and Invest in Skåne. It will run November 15-17, 2011, and focus on camera phones and the rapidly evolving innovations in mobile imaging.
