UPnP Forum passes 900 certified devices

The UPnP Forum has reported that over 900 devices have been certified as compliant with UPnP standards, with over 700 being publicly posted on the organisation’s website.

Compared to 2009, the organisation, which promotes the adoption of uniform technical device interconnectivity standards and certifies devices conforming to these standards, last year certified three times as many devices that ‘render’ content – including television sets, speakers, audio players, electronic picture frames, PCs and printers.

It said that in 2011 to date it has already certified 74% more renderer devices than in the whole of 2010.
The UPnP Forum recently introduced a new version of the UPnP certification test tool (UCTT 2.0), built by OSS specialist Comarch, for compliance testing.
