December 26, 2008 (Tokyo, Japan)—Emoji Lite, developed by Acrodea, Inc. (CEO and President: Junya Tsutsumi), headquartered in Meguro-ku, Tokyo, has been implemented as “Emoji Plus” to NTT DoCoMo’s mobile handset “docomo STYLE series SH-02A” (made by Sharp), and released as a new model today.
Acrodea’s Emoji Lite features the automatic insertion to mobile email of invariably necessary picture fonts. This breakthrough middleware solution further enhances email as a communication tool. The use of picture fonts in email was previously cumbersome and time consuming, because picture fonts had to be called repeatedly while drafting email. Emoji Lite can eliminate the manual effort, and generate email containing picture fonts quickly and easily. The operation is quite simple. After an email message is drafted, the feature can automatically insert picture fonts with the single press of a key. Emoji Lite has independently compiled dictionary files, based on frequently appearing words. Upon identification of such words referenced from the dictionary, picture font characters that match the email message content are automatically inserted.
Plans call for the successive release of mobile handsets implemented with Emoji Lite in December and beyond.
