OpenGL welcomes Google, Apple and Dell

Google, Apple and Dell are among a recent group of companies that have joined the Khronos Group, a developer of the OpenGL graphics standard.

The Khronos Group is funded by members to create open standard royalty free API's that allow playback of dynamic media across a wide array of platforms and devices. Khronos members are from a broad spectrum in the industry, and include many companies from operating system vendors, system and handset OEM's, game developers, application developers, and wireless carriers.

Through their new membership, Google, Apple and Dell will be helping to create new standards, and new market opportunities for the graphic and dynamic media industries.
