Metrological joints RDK

TV app store provider Metrological has jointed the RDK community, the open source initiative to create a standardised hardware platform for next-generation cable services. 

Metrological joins more than 160 existing RDK community members comprising chip vendors, OEM hardware manufacturers, app developers and system integrators.  The RDK is intended to provide a common underlying technology layer to shorten the development cycle for TV set top boxes and apps.

“Metrological is compatible with and supports the RDK. Fundamentally, we enable operators to manage and monetise opportunities relating to app delivery. Our technology speeds up development and gives the operator full control to manage the app ecosystem, bringing those opportunities radically closer for operators,” said Metrological chief technology officer Albert Dahan.
