Alcatel opens 3G Reality Centre in China to combat SARS
May 23, 2003
Alcatel will open its 3G Reality Centre in China to application developers
in the Asia Pacific region, to jointly work on multimedia mobile medical
applications to contribute to the current anti-SARS fight.
In the current severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS) situation, Alcatel
Shanghai Bell has made the development of multimedia mobile applications
useful for SARS prevention and treatment a priority. Such applications
can include mobile "tele-medicine" and remote temperature follow-up with
discharged patients, which will be of great help in the anti-SARS campaign.
In addition, Alcatel has pledged research fund support and incubation
for developers with strong proposals for relevant application development.
This will be done through its Telecom Technology (T Tech) Fund - the first-ever
investment vehicle exclusively dedicated to China-origin telecom technology
with an initial investment of US 18 million dollars.
As the first comprehensive, live 2.5G/GPRS and 3G/UMTS environment in
China, Alcatel Shanghai Bell's 3G Reality Centre here is the ideal place
to develop, test and prototype such applications. Since its launch in
June 2002, the Centre has partnered with important application content
providers such as Intrinsic Technology and Korea's WiderThan.com, to provide
mobile operators in China and the Asia Pacific region with the latest
applications and services.
Alcatel has also donated US 200,000 dollars worth of communications equipment
to anti-SARS hospitals in Beijing, for use by doctors, patients and their
family members.
