Freescale offers take on tablets, .D units

in tablets.

Glen Burchers, director of global consumer-segment marketing, said the society is making four predictions about future tablets and how they will dissent from what is available to day.

First, he says, they will be exploited for a conception called "augmented reality."

For example, a map of the shopping center would show where you are and what is happening in the stores nearby. You too would be capable to fit out the card of a restaurant in the food court or figure out what the Gap has on sale, Burchers said.

"Instead of screening with your eyes but the stores in face of you, you're viewing with a tablet the stores in face of you overlaid with significant information about what's happening in those stores at this stage in time," he said.

"That requires that the processor be capable to decide where you are, what's around you and then fetch information from the locations around you about what's happening real time there."

Secondly, Burchers said tablets will take the same gaming quality as desktops do now. The new Freescale chips offer four processors and three separate graphics units.

"Three-D gaming, high-end desk-top gaming, we believe will be a feature that's not just release to be on desktops but likewise on tablets," he said.

Tablets will also offer 3-D video capture, with two cameras on the game of the pill that will have video simultaneously.

"It takes two pictures, separated by distance to produce 3-D," Burchers said. "So, having two cameras allows you to take in 3-D, and so you can replay back in 3-D, as well."

Lastly, Freescale predicts tablets will used to produce content. Today, most of them are exploited for content consumption, and about people use their background or notebook PCs to produce content.

"We believe within 18 months, when these new quad cores (processors) are in the market, you'll be capable to use them to produce content like you do with PCs today," Burchers said.

Computer tablets and 3-D technology in TVs and games were the subject last week during the International Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas.

Freescale Semiconductor Inc. which has purpose and manufacturing facilities in Chandler and Tempe, unveiled a new job of processors that it says will provide more functionality
