Amerikaanse Soldaten gaan wearable computers gebruiken, die waarschijnlijk vanaf de volgende versie worden uitgerust met Transmeta's Crusoe processor, vanwege de lage stroomconsumptie. De performance is nog steeds goed genoeg voor deze toepassingen. Deze wearables worden gemaakt door ViA Inc.
Following on its successful initial public offering, upstart computer-chip maker Transmeta Corp. (TMTA) on Thursday is expected to announce that computer maker ViA Inc. will use its low-power Crusoe processor in a wearable computer it plans to produce.
ViA said that the first versions of its wearable PC are now being used by the U.S. Army Military Police in tests at Fort Polk, La., and elsewhere. The Crusoe chip will be used in the next iteration of the wearable PC.
