Montreal, QC -- October 28, 2015 -- Hardent, a leading provider of IP solutions and electronic design consulting services, has today announced that it has become a Contributor Member of the MIPI® Alliance. As a Contributor Member, Hardent will play an active role in the development of new industry specifications for mobile and mobile-influenced products.

The MIPI Alliance is a global non-profit corporation that brings together members from across the mobile ecosystem with the objective of defining and promoting specifications for standard hardware and software interfaces in mobile devices. The organization does this through a series of working groups that focus on the entire span of mobile design, from battery life to display.

As a provider of IP solutions for display-based products, Hardent intends to leverage its experience in connectivity, transport, and video display processing within the MIPI member work groups. “Open standards play a critical role in developing the next generation of mobile products,” says Simon Robin, President at Hardent. “MIPI membership offers a unique opportunity for us to work together with other member companies to drive innovation in the mobile industry and deliver cutting-edge MIPI-compatible IP products to our customers.”

To mark the start of Hardent’s MIPI Alliance membership, Hardent will be attending the MIPI Alliance Open & Demo Day to be held in Taipei on October 29, 2015. The presentation “New MIPI DSISM and VESA DSC Use Cases” will highlight the benefits and considerations for utilizing the VESA DSC standard, which Hardent was actively involved in defining as a member of the VESA DSC Task Group.
