Yes­ter­day my atten­tion was drawn by this YouTube video:

The video has been released on YouTube and as the title sug­gests it is a teaser. The qual­ity of the video is pretty good and it really seems that a video pro­fes­sional has worked on it.Form what I can see Modu will release a very small mod­ule that will plug in sev­eral dig­i­tal devices like GPS nav­i­ga­tion sys­tems, game con­soles, com­put­ers, dig­i­tal cam­era, etc. We can guess that this prod­uct will tie these things together in some way.

These are only spec­u­la­tions and we can­not really say what the prod­uct will be.

Let’s con­tinue with the spec­u­la­tions. First thing. The domain name for Modu is mod​u​mo​bile​.com so we can thinks that the prod­uct seems to be some­thing mobile.

The web site itself does not say any­thing on the prod­uct but will give you infor­ma­tions on com­pany man­age­ment team and jobs openings.

On the man­age­ment side you will find peo­ple com­ing from msys­tems , the com­pany that invented the USB Flash Drive and that was acquired from San­Disk, Inc., peo­ple com­ing from Texas Instru­ments, Microsoft. It seems a rock solid man­age­ment team with a strong knowl­edge of the mobile and con­sumer elec­tron­ics market.

Some other inter­est­ing hints may come for the jobs openings:

  • UI Soft­ware Engineer
  • CE Soft­ware Engineer
  • Firmware Engi­neer
  • Ana­log Hard­ware Engineer
  • Indus­trial Designer
  • … and many others.

We are prob­a­bly talk­ing of a dig­i­tal prod­uct with ana­log inter­faces based on embed­ded win­dows CE with a user inter­face and an atten­tion to indus­trial design.

What will it do? We do not know but from what I see it def­i­nitely seems interesting.
