Samsung today updated five of its software developer kits in a move that it hopes will entice developers to create unique applications and services for its smartphone, tablets, televisions, and other products.
The new Mobile SDK includes controllers for Samsung’s S Pen, media apps, gestures, and professional audio in a single package. Samsung updated its Knox SDK, which will help businesses take advantage of its enterprise security tools and manage their Samsung mobile devices more effectively.
Samsung also offered updates to its Multiscreen, Smart TV, and Multiscreen Gaming SDKs, which should help developers use its cloud-publishing system to make pairing and sharing between mobile devices and television sets even easier. Samsung hopes developers will take advantage of these tools to boost the number of apps available to its Smart TVs and let smartphones/tablets serve as the engine to push games to large television sets.
All five of these updated SDKs are available to developers today in beta form.
