Nvidia expands business, offers graphics licensing

Nvidia plans to offer graphics core licensing to expand the chip maker's future markets and revamp its business model in the 'post-PC' era.

Speaking at the Reuters Global Technology Summit in San Francisco on Tuesday, Nvidia chief Jen-Hsun Huang said that he will be introducing a new side to the company's business -- graphics technology licensing to other firms.
Licensing will allow Nvidia to further exploit the mobile device market as the company's core PC business slides in favor of tablets and smartphones.
Such licensing deals may potentially also include working in the future with tech giants Apple and Samsung, although the electronics makers are more often using their own processors in smartphones and tablets. In addition, the shift in business model will pit Nvidia against U.K.-based Imagination Technologies, which supplies graphics technology for devices including Apple's iPhone and Samsung's Galaxy S4.
