Embesded Voice and Video experts, SPIRIT DSP, have announced that Reigncom, the company that owns MP3 player company, iRiver, has selected it's TeamSpirit 3.0 Voice&Video Engine Mobile to handle the voice and video performance in its upcoming iRiver Unit2 portable media player.

The next-gen player is a tablet style player and base station that will incorporate a Video & Voice over IP conferencing terminal, a DVD player, TV tuner, WiFi access point, will support an SD slot and USB connectivity, and will handle voice and video over IP calls and conferencing, music, movies, photos, eBooks, and WiFi streaming for the home.

"iRiver has always been an innovator- both in user features set and design. To keep pace with today's rapidly growing and very demanding personal communication and home entertainment market, we need to work with industry leaders - that's why we have chosen SPIRIT. We would like to emphasize the high quality and excellent integration support we received from SPIRIT," said Justin Hwang, VP Products of Reigncom.

"We are pleased to contribute the development and further market success of the fabulous, innovative design of SPIRIT's world leading Voice and Video Engine," said Alex Kravchenko, VP Sales of SPIRIT. "iRiver Unit2, being powered by SPIRIT, is another acknowledgement of SPIRIT's world leadership in high-quality voice and video over IP and WiFi communication on mobile platforms."

TeamSpirit 3.0 Voice&Video Engine Mobile is a complete solution that delivers a rich voice and video experience for mobile OEMs. Due to sophisticated algorithms the engine enables best-of-breed voice, as well as three-way video conference calls with 10 fps on a low cost 200 MHz mobile phone for 3G VT and V2oIP applications.

The engine provides longer battery life thanks to extremely low MIPS consumption. TeamSpirit Mobile is specifically designed for next generation mobile devices like portable players with Wi-Fi adapter, dual mode phones (cellular + WiFi), WiFi phones, softphones on mobile platforms, IP voice and videophones, and 3G mobile phones (with video telephony support).
