HipLogic announced OEMs can customize standard Android UI in cloud

So much for Google’s fragmentation of Android. HipLogic, a Fremont, California company announced that they will provide a way for operators and mobile handset OEMs to customize the standard Android user interface (UI), leveraging the openness of Google’s Android operating system to address some of operators’ toughest challenges—meaningful user customization, rising data consumption and limited brand differentiation.

According to their CEO:

“We’re seeing an increased demand for a custom solution as the number of Android devices and offerings explode onto the market. HipLogic will empower operator networks and OEMs with the capability to create differentiated Android services and experiences” said Mark Anderson, CEO of HipLogic.

An OTA update in cloud computing that allows users to change their user interface on the fly? Sounds pretty sweet to us, now the question is: How well does it work?

“Our solution allows for over the air updates to content services and the cloud connected interface, even after the product is in consumer’s hands, making the experience unique and dynamic,” adds HipLogic Founder and CTO, Mark Young.

Until we get to a trial version of the UI, we will have to read the implementation info here:

HipLogic’s Android Interface offers:

  • Customization that enables operators to differentiate their services
  • The ability to update the services and applications on the device “over the air”
  • Data optimization by delivering content in a highly compressed format when compared to HTML
