"CEA is investing resources towards these types of technologies because many of our members are actively involved in developing and delivering products that allow consumers to more effectively connect any and all electronics products throughout the home." The OSGi Service Platform is an open software standard. It provides a common platform for service providers, device manufacturers, and others to remotely and dynamically deliver, integrate, and manage a rich set of valuable services to building, home, mobile, vehicle and other environments. The OSGi Alliance recently announced that a number of frameworks based on the OSGi Service Platform Release 3 have passed certification testing, underscoring the growing adoption of the OSGi Service Platform in today's real-world deployments. The Philips iPronto and Motorola MS1000 are examples of products using certified See certification. OSGi Service Platforms.
