Development Kits

With the Snapdragon Software Development Kit (or SDK), developers and designers can differentiate their applications and take advantage of the additional capabilities offered by devices with Snapdragon processors, but without compromising compatibility between the diverse collection of Android devices. The Snapdragon SDK for Android provides access to the heart of the system through application programming interfaces (the popular APIs). Among the capabilities offered by the Snapdragon SDK are features such as facial processing, with recognition of gestures such as smiles or blinks, surround sound recording for optimal audio capture, touch sensors to create personalized user interfaces, or indoor location to keep geo-referenced apps working. These are just a few of the capabilities available to developers to create smarter and better apps.
