Irish mobile multimedia processor firm Movidius has announced a tie-up with Chinese electronics group Keen High Shenzhen to manufacture a range of consumer electronics products.

The deal is expected to generate €19 million in revenues over the next three years. The group says that volume shipments have begun to the US, Japan, Russia, Europe and China.

“Our ultra low-power Myriad media processing platform has enabled us to develop novel products for both the mobile and consumer markets,” Paul Costigan, chief operating officer and vice-president Asia Pacific at Movidius, says. “Keen High is a great manufacturing partner for us in bringing these products to market for customers around the world.”

The deal was launched at Keen High’s Shenzhen headquarters during a visit by Minister for Jobs Richard Bruton.
