Quoted from Android Invasion, Monday, January 9, 2012, a number of sources of internal circles Google claims that they are developing a special processor and GPU (graphics processing unit) to be used on Android-based devices.
Google seems to want to bring uniformity to the Android hardware to come. And according to the programming of a Google employee who spread the information, the possibility of a processor made by Google it will present at the next Nexus.
Despite the news that Google's foray into the processor industry is heard a sudden, it seems the move makes sense from Google's perspective. They certainly want to be really able to compete with the competitors (such as the Apple iPhone) by making the processor itself.
As is known, at present, a number of manufacturers Android smartphone or tablet using the processor and the graphics are different from each other. Android operating system itself is able to work on a variety of hardware systems, ranging from very good capable, to a mediocre performance.
Unfortunately, when confirmed, Google is not willing to give testimony. However, if this news is true, it seems Google has once again taken a step toward strengthening their platform.
