From now until 30 August 2020, developers around APAC can enter the AppsUP –

Huawei HMS App Innovation Contest to compete for prize pool worth USD400,000

simply by integrating their apps with at least one HMS Core Kit. Developers can

register for AppsUP via https://bit.ly/AppsUP-APAC.

As of March 2020, Huawei's global monthly active users has reached 650 million,

a year-on-year increase of 25 percent. Additionally, there are 1.4 million

registered developers worldwide, a 115 percent growth over the last year. The

number of apps integrated with HMS Core has also exceeded 60,000 globally,

demonstrating 67 percent year-on-year growth.

HMS Core 5.0 is a successor to HMS Core 4.0 with more than 20 newly added

capabilities to meet the growing needs of developers worldwide. The 4.0 version

has already established diverse open capabilities ranging from AI to security,

while the newly launch HMS Core 5.0 takes one step further to offer expanded

capabilities such as Computer Graphics (CG) Kit, AR Engine, Accelerate Kit,

Scene Kit, and more to provide a comprehensive solution for app development.

Following are the key highlights of HMS Core 5.0 services:

-Computer Graphics Kit helps accelerate the adoption of CG in apps, which will

especially benefit the motion picture and gaming industries in creating richer

and innovative content. With the improved Physically Based Rendering (PBR)

algorithm, developers are enabled to accurately represent real-world materials

in the mobile game.

-AR Engine offers a wide range of AR-related capabilities such as motion,

environment, human body and face tracking, for developers to create an

interactive and immersive AR experiences easily.

-Accelerate Kit provides developers with multi-core, multi-threading solutions

to optimise the app performance. For apps that require heavy geometry or CG

rendering such as mobile game, the Accelerate Kit eases the app development

process and makes it run efficiently.

There are several upgrades that have also been made to the existing App

Services. Scan Kit now incorporates deep learning-based scanning codes to

improve scanning accuracy in challenging situations with faster response. The

Map Kit adds bus and subway route planning to help developers improve the app

functionalities.

'Cloud Debugging' for app test run and debugging on Huawei devices remotely

As a lightweight Integrated Development Environment (IDE) tool plugin, HMS Core

Toolkit implements app creation, encoding, conversion, debugging, testing

services to help developers integrate HMS Core with lower costs and higher

efficiency. For example, the 'Cloud Debugging' service offers emulators to

enable developers to test run and debug their apps on different Huawei devices

remotely online.

This service covers wide range of Huawei's latest device models, including the

popular HUAWEI P series and Mate series. The 'Cloud Debugging' supports

resolution change, and switch between landscape and portrait modes. Developers

can also view and download logs for fault identification.

'Cloud Debugging' is accessible through Huawei Developer website; and the

service is currently only available in the Asia Pacific (APAC) region.
