Microsoft has already made available for download a software development kit (SDK) for its recently
announced SmartGlass Xbox application.
The SmartGlass SDK is available to Microsoft's partners
and
Microsoft employees. It includes
Xbox SmartGlass Studio developing platform; a JavaScript
library with device APIs along with sample code.
The SmartGlass application
was unveiled at the E3
conference in early June. Designed for Windows 8,
Windows Phone, and other portable devices, it will
connect phones, PCs and tablets with the Xbox 360
console by displaying content on those devices. The app
will also work with iPads, iPhones and Android devices,
along with Windows 8 and Windows Phone.
The SmartGlass app is expected to be released later this
year.
