Moblin Projects

Audio Manager

The Audio Manager manages all audio streams and audio devices within Moblin.

BlueZ Integration

Moblin must provide a full-featured Bluetooth service for MID users. This project is aimed at integrating the most popular open-source Bluetooth stack - BlueZ into Moblin, and focuses on filling the gaps when integrating BlueZ into Moblin.

Clutter

Clutter is an open source software library for creating fast, visually rich and animated graphical user interfaces. Clutter is an integral part of the Moblin software stack and is an excellent choice for application developers looking to add 2D and 3D animations and effects in their applicaitons. Moblin uses Clutter to create exciting, efficient, and intuitive user interfaces, and your application can, too.

Design

Home of the Moblin Design team who drive the new User Experiences the Moblin project is trying to create. The first thing we've done that you can use is the new UX for Netbooks and Nettops. You'll find design documents and discussion here.

gupnp

GUPnP is an object-oriented open source framework for creating UPnP devices and control points, written in C using GObject and libsoup. The GUPnP API is intended to be easy to use, efficient and flexible.

Linux Project Generator

Linux Project Generator is a tool that can be used to quickly generate an autogen-based, Moblin compliant template project in C, C++, or Python. If you are beginning development of a new application, this tool can help quick start your project.

Moblin Image Creator

This project has been deprecated. For Moblin v2, please see Moblin Image Creator 2

Moblin Image Creator (MIC) is a tool aimed at making life easier for the mobile and embedded developer. The tool is designed to be extremely flexible with platform-specific knowledge isolated to a platform definition. Initial focus is on Mobile Internet Devices (MIDs), as well as a new class of devices, known as Netbooks and Nettops.

Moblin Security

( Note: Project technology is not yet part of Moblin distribution )

This project provides the security infrastructure for the Moblin. The security architecture for Moblin will be flexible so that it can be adapted to different verticals targeted by Moblin project.

Mojito

Mojito is a social data store, which will fetch and store data from the "social web", such as your friend's blog posts, photos, upcoming events, and so on. At its core, it is a modular database, with a number of modules which fetch data periodically and cache it locally. These modules cover most sources of social data on the Internet, such as RSS/Atom feeds, Flickr*/MySpace*/Picasa* photos, Myspace* and Facebook news feeds, eBay* alerts, and more.

Policy based Access Control

( Note: Project technology is not yet part of Moblin distribution )

Certain services on the Moblin based devices will need to control access. Typical reasons a device might need control access include:

1. The device supports critical services and needs to make sure that only select few applications have access to it.
2. Applications and services need to protect access to user privacy sensitive data. For example, the GPS managing service should not provide access to current location information to every application on the platform. Content manager should protect access to all user data and allow access to only policy specified applications.

Users need to have the ability to mediate this access control, where allowed.

Sensor Framework

Sensor Framework closes the sensor support gap in Linux. The Framework is responsible for managing sensor devices in a system, talking to the driver to get data, and providing the application with multi-access capabilities. Sensor Framework makes it unnecessary to know device-specific details or to directly interact with the driver. The Framework hides all of the details, so the only thing the application needs to do is link to the sensor API library.
