Object Exchange (OBEX)
OBEX is a transfer protocol that defines data
objects and a communication protocol two
devices can use to exchange those objects.
OBEX is designed to enable devices supporting
infrared communication to exchange a wide
variety of data and commands in a resource-
sensitive standardized fashion. The OBEX
protocol also defines a folder-listing object,
which is used to browse the contents of folders
on remote device. OBEX enables applications
to work over the Bluetooth technology protocol
stack as well as the IrDA stack. For Bluetooth
enabled devices, only connection-oriented
OBEX is supported. Three application profiles
have been developed using OBEX that include
SYNC, FTP and OPP.
Object Push Profile (OPP)
OPP defines the roles of push server and
push client. It is called push because the
transfers are always instigated by the sender
(client), not the receiver (server). OPP focuses
on a narrow range of object formats to
maximize interoperability. The most common
acceptable format is the vCard. OPP may also
be used for sending objects such as pictures
or appointment details.
USB Connectivity
For 2009, USB connectivity continues to
be the focal point in the development of
eighteen multimedia and CD source units.
USB connectivity enables easy music
transportatoin and playback from your
computer via USB Mass Storage Device
(a.k.a. jump drives) or compatible music
player to your Clarion source unit. In selected
source units, it also provides USB iPod Direct
Connect connectivity. Allowing iPod owners
to connect their iPod using an USB cable
with direct access to playlist, albums, artists,
composers, or songs.
An additional advantage of Clarion USB ports
is they’re all powered. What does this mean?
This means it can be used to recharge the
battery of commonly used devices such as
cellular phones, portable navigation units,
iPods, and more through the USB port.
Many Clarion USB equipped source units
also feature support for USB Digital Media
Streaming from MTP (Media Transfer
Protocol) devices. Support for USB MTP
devices dramatically increases the number of
compatible USB drives with Clarion source
units.
