Opera and I-Plus Technology bring Web and Widgets to TVs

South Korea-based I-Plus Technology Co. has selected the Opera Devices SDK 9.7 for the latest addition to its IP set-top box (STB) family, the IPT110. With Opera inside, hospitality and residential customers can start surfing the Web, complete with Widgets, on their TV screens.

The Opera-enhanced IPT110 will deliver Video-on-Demand (VOD) and IPTV services to customers. I-Plus Technology will use Opera technology to control and display Web-based IPTV and VOD content and browse the Web, optimized for the TV screen.

"We were looking for Web browser software that would provide our customers and end-users with a stable, fast and TV-optimized Web experience," said I-Plus Technology Co. "The Web is a key component to our product and we use Opera’s technology for more than simple Web browsing. Opera is a fast and efficient way to create and display content, getting our new STB on the market and in customers' hands even quicker."

The Opera Devices SDK also allows I-Plus Technology to take advantage of Opera Widgets. Widgets provide added flexibility by allowing select Web content to be accessible directly from the home-screen.

"A superior Web experience adds value to IPTV products. With Opera you not only get a first-class browser but you also get the tools to create and display other content, saving development time and resources," said James Wei, Senior Vice President, Asia, Opera Software. "I-Plus Technology demonstrates true industry leadership by pushing the boundaries of how content is delivered and presented on their set-top boxes."
