Motorola Mobile Ceo:moto x Let's go back to the roots of innovation

Motorola Mobile CEO Moto in Thursday at the press conference on the display of the X mobile phone (Tencent technology map) Tencent Technology (Mingxuan) Beijing time August 2 news, according to foreign media reports, Motorola Mobile chief executive Dennis Wood (Dennis Woodside) Thursday in Moto "The phone is pretty cool," says X's mobile. Later, Wood began to show Moto X Mobile. Wood says: OK. Google (Weibo) Google Now. Call my assistant. "Although Wood did not touch the screen, his cell phone began to make the call according to his instructions." He then said to Moto X mobile, "OK Google now, navigate to Sunnyvale Enterprise Avenue (Enterprise Way) No. 1000th." "Moto x Mobile Opens the default navigation app on Google Maps, directing directions to Motorola Mobility in the Silicon Valley headquarters." Apple iphone Virtual voice assistant Siri is still flawed, but Motorola Mobile's Thursday new Moto X phone has made speech recognition technology a step forward. For example, the "OK Glass" command will be able to open the application of Google glasses. The ability to wake Moto X through voice is one of the unique contributions of Motorola Mobility. Motorola Mobile, a handset-maker, was bought by Google for $12.5 billion in 2011. Moto x represents the combination of Google software and Google Voice assistant Google Now technology, and Motorola Mobile's proprietary X8 mobile computing system. X8 Mobile computing technology is a combination of multiprocessor and mobile core processor algorithms, allowing Moto X to respond to the "wake-up language". The Moto x phone has eight core processing cores, of which two are designed to manage information from phone microphones, gyroscopes and accelerometers. With the correct instructions, you can also open the camera on Moto X by voice. "Google is the first company to commercialize a driverless car," says Wood. Moto x is the first ' unmanned ' mobile phone. "Moto x has 16GB storage space, with a contract price of $199." Users pay 50 dollars more to upgrade to 32GB. Starting at the end of August this year, Moto X will be sold through all large U.S. mobile operators. Through the "Moto Maker" website, consumers will be able to customize 18 different colors and different materials shell mobile phones. Moto x weighs 130 grams and is equipped with a 4.7-inch AMOLED display, as well as a 10 million-pixel clear pixel technology rear-mounted camera. Moto Xmoto X is the first flagship smartphone to be released by Motorola Mobile since Motorola Mobile was acquired by Google, and it is the initial apparent attempt by Google to see returns from the takeover. Wood says that since the Motorola move was acquired, the publicDivision is still releasing the droid brand's equipment, but has slashed the product line. Motorola Mobile released 45 products in 2011; The data is now close to 12. So far, Motorola Mobility has been dragging down Google's performance as it has lost several consecutive quarterly losses. But Mr Woodford, who reports directly to Google's chief executive, Larry Page, says simplifying the product line (and layoffs) will give the company "self-sufficiency" at some point. Wood did not disclose a detailed timetable for this. Like rivals BlackBerry and Nokia, Motorola Mobility faces huge challenges as it tries to make a difference in the US smartphone market, controlled by Apple and Samsung Electronics. However, Wood believes that Motorola mobile products can be widely attractive because Motorola Mobility has "returned to the root causes of innovation." "At present, about 80% of the 4,000 employees in Motorola Mobility are engaged in research and development, including software and hardware development, and manufacturing-related technical work." Wood and his team think that when ordering a Moto X cell phone, mainstream consumers will like to choose a variety of different colors and materials of the shell. By making Moto X handsets from manufacturing plants located in the city of Texas Fort Worth, Motorola Mobility is able to receive orders from consumers and quickly deliver goods to consumers. Mark Landre, a former Amazon executive in charge of Motorola's mobile supply chain system, will be responsible for the delivery of Moto X handsets. Wood says Moto X uses some of Motorola's own speech recognition algorithms, as well as third-party algorithms. Wood did not disclose the name of a third party, but it is certain that Google is one of them. Google is now the only large technology company to build a voice-recognition database that competes with nuance. Nuance's speech recognition technology supports the Apple Virtual assistant Siri and the s-voice of Samsung Electronics. Wood says Moto X is currently only able to perform voice control on Google apps, but in the future the phone "may" integrate voice technology with third-party applications such as navigation applications Waze. How does Google deal with Third-party smartphone makers? Google, which also offers Android operating systems to companies such as Samsung Electronics, HTC and Huawei, faces a tricky balancing question: how to maintain relationships with manufacturers while promoting their Android handsets and hardware. With the acquisition of Motorola Mobility, Google's competition with these vendors is growing. Wood says whether Moto X marks a new round of tension between the manufacturer and Google should be decided by the manufacturers themselves. "From the point of view of Motorola Mobility, we are truly independent operators," he said. The company's technicians simply can't access Google's system. Our network is completely different. Of course, this does not undermine Google's acquisition of Motorola Mobile's original intention. Better Mobile SetMaking Google's services better is more conducive to innovation. ”
