, NeoSolar to co-develop Mobion portable devices U S-based MTI MicroFuel Cells has entered into an agreement with NeoSolar, a Korean manufacturer of portable digital devices and energy products, for the development of Mobion ยฎ fuel cell technology for use in future models of NeoSolar portable digital devices, including ultra mobile portable computers (UMPCs).
MTI Micro and NeoSolar will work together to develop, test and evaluate Mobion prototypes for integration with a number of NeoSolar products that could lead to the use of external Mobion power sources like chargers, snap-on attachments, and embedded Mobion power sources for integration into various digital products.
NeoSolar's 'Wibrain' branded UMPCs are much smaller than traditional portable notebook computers, yet have enough processor power to support a full operating system, as well as complete browsing, communication, video and gaming capabilities in a compact package.
'Working with NeoSolar gives us access to a new segment of the consumer electronics market: UMPCs,' says Peng Lim, chairman/CEO of MTI Micro and its parent, Mechanical Technology Inc. 'NeoSolar's UMPCs are well suited for a new power source that can take them to the next step in their product evolution.' He adds that this is also an important step for MTI Micro towards its goal of becoming a leading provider of portable power for handheld electronic devices.
MTI Micro has been very busy with preparations for commercialization, most recently with a link-up with a Japanese camera firm [FCB, July 2008], and before that it unveiled an embedded DMFC GPS prototype [FCB, May 2008].
