In the 2012 iF product design awards ceremony that took place in Munich, Germany on February 9, Sony Ericsson received four product design awards in the telecommunications category. The judging criteria included quality of design and finish, choice of materials, environmental impact and functionality.

The Indestructible Droid, Xperia active received the highest level of recognition, the Gold award. Jeanna Kimbré, Director of Creative Product Design for Sony Ericsson commented on Xperia active’s achievement:

The Xperia active smartphone reflects our commitment to offer handsets for active consumers with stunning design inside and out. Design has always been a cornerstone of how we approach innovation and we will continue to build on this success with the new iconic design language introduced as part of our 2012 portfolio.

Ralph Wiegmann, Managing Director of iF International Forum Design GmbH in Hannover commented:

We warmly congratulate Sony Ericsson for its first iF gold award.  Xperia active is a very functional smartphone with a highly elegant design. Especially for sport users,  it is the number one choice  and the water and dust-resistance make it a very special product – a symbiosis of functionality and elegance.

The other smartphones eligible for the design awards are Xperia ray, Mix Walkman and Xperia mini pro.

It seems Sony Ericsson continues the support for the open dev community as they are making the the sensor HAL for the 2011 Xperia phones available as open source. Earlier they made the WebGL for android 4.0 as open source and the new step is from the feedbacks they received. So what does the developers benefit from this? They are now able to access and configure the sensors of a 2011 Xperia phone deeper than it was possible earlier.

The Sensor HAL now releasing as opensource includes source code files, and ‘make’ files that describes how the sensors are configured. So, in your ROM, you can enable or disable multiple sets of sensors for each device and in some cases also second-source sensors, when you are compiling. The sensor HAL also makes it possible to configure the sensors, so that you can mount the “sensor chip” in different ways without having to change the code.

The developers can either adapt the sensor HAL to their ROM, or use it as it is. For more information on this, just read through the README file included in the pack.

More information on Hardware Abstraction Layer can be found in this blog post.

Xperia active, the indestructible droid has attracted very many sports enthusiasts out there. The phone did really prove its ability to withstand any odd situations. If you’re a dirt race biker, a swimmer or a surfer or whoever it is for that matter, Xperia active is your android.

Now for the time being, for the cyclists we have some interesting stuff. It’s an accessory for Xperia active, that is a bicycle mount. Clove has some interesting pictures of the new accessory but it seems they are not stocking it now. So if you’re a cyclist or someone interested in this new accessory do let them know.

Xperia active is with a 1GHz processor, 512 MB RAM, a 5MP camera, a 1200mAh battery, Reality display with Mobile Bravia Engine and above all, a phone you can never destroy!

One of the main things about Sony Ericsson phones I have always loved, and I know a lot of you out there love too, is the design. So, when we receive a design award for one of our phones, it’s always very exciting for us and we can’t wait to tell you!

This time, we received four 2012 iF design awards in the telecommunications category, including the highest level of recognition, the gold award, that was given to the Xperia™ active smartphone.  On previous posts, we had talked a lot of how cool the Xperia active is, with it’s aluminum frame, great size, sports features, and water and dust resistance and we are really proud of this recognition for the design of this really functional smartphone.

The iF (international Forum) design awards is globally recognized among the most important awards for innovative product design, and the judging criteria to determine the winners for the awards includes quality of design and finish, choice of materials, environmental impact and functionality.

Also, the iF awards recognized the wider Xperia range and awarded Xperia ray, Mix Walkman and Xperia mini pro with product design awards. We are really proud that our commitment to create beautifully designed smartphones, without sacrificing functionality, is recognized though international design awards like this one!

This is one of the things that you can read about in our brand new 2011 Sustainability report just published on our website. In the report you will find more information about our GreenHeart™ credentials, how we work with critical substances, our carbon footprint, Lifecycle Analysis, Community Engagement activities and much more.

This report highlights what Sony Ericsson has accomplished in the field of Sustainability in 2011 as well as the importance of working with the different fields of Sustainability. This is Sony Ericsson’s last Sustainability report as a separate company. As we become part of Sony, we will be integrated in Sony’s Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) Report and together we will continue to work towards reducing the impact of products on the environment. The integration with Sony enables us to join forces and combine our strengths to create new initiatives in the area of sustainability.

We hope you enjoy reading the report! Let us know in the comment section if you have any feed-back, comments or questions. We are looking forward to hearing from you!

Continuing our open innovation initiative, we are now making the sensor HAL for the 2011 Xperia™ phones available as open source. So if you’re an advanced developer, you will now be able to access and configure the sensors of a 2011 Xperia™ phone on a deeper level. For example, you will be allowed to optimise the way the compass is used in a custom ROM.

In the good feedback we received on our previous open initiatives, we have seen a lot of requests for us to open source these files. And now, we’re happy to provide that opportunity. This is not part of open source archives that we are required to publish, it simply something we want to do for the community.

Read more after the jump!

If you read our blog post called Ice Cream Sandwich – from source code release to software upgrade, you’re probably familiar with the concept HAL (Hardware Abstraction Layer). The sensor HAL we are now releasing as open source contains source code files, and “make” files that describes how the sensors of the Sony Ericsson 2011 phones are configured. Using this, you can enable and disable multiple sets of sensors for each device, and in some cases also second-source sensors, when you are compiling.

The sensor HAL also makes it possible to configure the sensors, so that you can mount the “sensor chip” in different ways without having to change the code. Get started by downloading the sensor HAL for the 2011 Xperia™ phones. Then you can choose to either adapt the sensor HAL to your ROM, or use our sensor HAL more pretty much off-the-shelf. For additional information about the files included in the sensor HAL zip, check out the README.txt file included in the zip.

Working with all of you folks in the open dev community is important to us, and we hope you will find this latest addition of open sourced assets useful. What else is on your open source wish list? Write a comment and let us know.
